  In this paper, we present a novel hybrid nonlinear explicit-compact scheme
for shock-capturing based on a boundary variation diminishing (BVD)
reconstruction. In our approach, we combine a non-dissipative sixth-order
central compact interpolation and a fifth-order monotonicity preserving scheme
(MP5) through the BVD algorithm. For a smooth solution, the BVD reconstruction
chooses the highest order possible interpolation, which is central, i.e.
non-dissipative in the current approach and for the discontinuities, the
algorithm selects the monotone scheme. This method provides an alternative to
the existing adaptive upwind-central schemes in the literature. Several
numerical examples are conducted with the present approach, which suggests that
the current method is capable of resolving small scale flow features and has
the same ability to capture sharp discontinuities as the MP5 scheme.
