In this work, we have developed a fifth-order alternative mapped weighted essentially nonoscillatory (AWENO-M) finite volume scheme using non-linear weights of mapped WENO reconstruction scheme of Henrick et al. (J. Comput. Phys., 207 (2005), pp. 542--567) for solving hyperbolic conservation laws. The reconstruction of numerical flux is done using primitive variables instead of conservative variables. The present scheme results in less spurious oscillations near discontinuities and shows higher-order accuracy at critical points compared to the alternative WENO scheme (AWENO) based on traditional non-linear weights of Jiang and Shu (J. Comput. Phys., 228 (1996), pp. 202--228). The third-order Runge-Kutta method has been used for solution advancement in time. The Harten-Lax-van Leer-Contact (HLLC) shock-capturing method is used to provide necessary upwinding into the solution. The performance of the present scheme is evaluated in terms of accuracy, computational cost, and resolution of discontinuities by using various one and two-dimensional test cases.
