Review text

In this paper, an alternative method is presented with a very high order of accuracy and with an explicit time discretization and \({\mathcal O}(1)\) CFL condition. The method is a staggered version of the energy-based discontinuous Galerkin method which does not require any additional copies of the solution vector and thus has the same memory cost as the original method in [\textit{D. Appelö} and \textit{T. Hagstrom}, SIAM J. Numer. Anal. 53, No. 6, 2705--2726 (2015; Zbl 1330.65145)], by taking much larger time steps. It was shown that, away from boundaries, using staggered meshes and suitably chosen numerical fluxes lead to energy-based DG methods for the wave equation with high order time step stability bounds. A large global time step can be maintained if local time stepping is used near boundaries. In this paper, simple geometries are used, but as the authors remark the proposed method is applicable with local time stepping in more complex domains containing a sufficiently large volume separated from boundaries.
