Abstract
This work uses a constitutive relationship able to describe the transition unsaturated-saturated and vice-versa, employing a Mixture Theory approach that ensures the hyperbolicity of the associated mathematical system. This relationship is continuous and differentiable, and its first derivative is an increasing positive function so that the amount of fluid that may exceed the porosity is controllable. This work presents a new variation of Glimm scheme, with a strong trend to preserve symmetries, giving rise to computational solutions with dependable positions of rarefaction, shock, and contact shock waves. Comparisons with classical Glimm method for problems with exact solutions show this important feature.
