Abstract: We present a Lagrangian scheme for one-dimensional Euler equations.The scheme uses Runge-Kutta discontinuous Galerkin (RKDG) finite element method to solve Euler equations under Lagrangian framework.The mesh moves with fluid flow.The scheme is conservative for density,momentum and total energy.It achieves second-order accuracy both in space and time.Numerical tests are presented to demonstrate accuracy and non-oscillatory properties of the scheme.

Key words: Lagrangian scheme, Euler equations, RKDG finite element method, one-dimensional conservative scheme
