hp-FEM for Hyperbolic Problems
(1999)SAM Research ReportThis paper is devoted to the a priori and a posteriori error analysis of the hp-version of the discontinuous Galerkin finite element method for partial differential equations of hyperbolic and nearly-hyperbolic character. We consider second-order partial differential equations with nonnegative characteristic form, a large class of equations which includes convection-dominated diffusion problems, degenerate elliptic equations and second-order ...Report -
hp-DGFEM for Partial Differential Equations with Nonnegative Characteristic Form
(1999)SAM Research ReportWe develop the error analysis for the hp-version of a discontinuous finite element approximation to second-order partial differential equations with nonnegative characteristic form. This class of equations includes classical examples of second-order elliptic and parabolic equations, first-order hyperbolic equations, as well as equations of mixed type. We establish an a priori error bound for the method which is of optimal order in the ...Report
