We give a summary of the derivation of an implicit subgrid-scale model for LES which is obtained from a new approach for the approximation of hyperbolic conservation laws. Adaptive local deconvolution is performed using a quasi-linear solution-adaptive combination of local interpolation polynomials. The physical flux function is substituted by a suitable numerical flux function. The truncation error has physical significance and effectively acts as subgrid-scale model. It can be determined by a modified-differential-equation analysis and is adjustable through free parameters. Computational results for Burgers equation show that the model with parameters identified by evolutionary optimization give significantly better results than other models.
