A parallel \(hp\)-adaptive discontinuous Galerkin method for hyperbolic conservation laws (Q1917464)

This paper presents a parallel adaptive strategy based on discontinuous \(hp\)-finite element approximations of scalar linear hyperbolic conservation laws. The focus is on the development of an effective parallel adaptive strategy for such problems. The numerical experiments presented suggest that these techniques are highly parallelizable and deliver superlinear rates of convergence, thereby delivering efficiency many times superior to conventional schemes for the said problems.
