  In this article we present a new class of high order accurate
Arbitrary-Eulerian-Lagrangian (ALE) one-step WENO finite volume schemes for
solving nonlinear hyperbolic systems of conservation laws on moving two
dimensional unstructured triangular meshes. A WENO reconstruction algorithm is
used to achieve high order accuracy in space and a high order one-step time
discretization is achieved by using the local space-time Galerkin predictor.
For that purpose, a new element--local weak formulation of the governing PDE is
adopted on moving space--time elements. The space-time basis and test functions
are obtained considering Lagrange interpolation polynomials passing through a
predefined set of nodes. Moreover, a polynomial mapping defined by the same
local space-time basis functions as the weak solution of the PDE is used to map
the moving physical space-time element onto a space-time reference element. To
maintain algorithmic simplicity, the final ALE one-step finite volume scheme
uses moving triangular meshes with straight edges. This is possible in the ALE
framework, which allows a local mesh velocity that is different from the local
fluid velocity. We present numerical convergence rates for the schemes
presented in this paper up to sixth order of accuracy in space and time and
show some classical numerical test problems for the two-dimensional Euler
equations of compressible gas dynamics.
