Generalized weak Galerkin finite element methods for second order elliptic problems

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: This article proposes and analyzes the generalized weak Galerkin ({ m g}WG) finite element method for the second order elliptic problem. A generalized discrete weak gradient operator is introduced in the weak Galerkin framework so that the { m g}WG methods would not only allow arbitrary combinations of piecewise polynomials defined in the interior and on the boundary of each local finite element, but also work on general polytopal partitions. Error estimates are established for the corresponding numerical functions in the energy norm and the usual L2 norm. A series of numerical experiments are presented to demonstrate the performance of the newly proposed { m g}WG method.
