Abstract: We study the stability of some finite difference schemes for hyperbolic systems in two space dimensions. The grid is assumed to be cartesian, but the space steps in each direction are not necessarily equal. Our sufficient stability conditions are shown to be also necessary for one concrete example. We conclude with some numerical illustrations of our results.
