Bubble stabilized discontinuous Galerkin method for parabolic and elliptic problems

From MaRDI portal





The authors give an analysis of a bubble stabilized discontinuous Galerkin method for elliptic and parabolic problems. Numerical stability is studied using finite element method by quadratic bubbles. Optimal convergence is shown in space \(x\) and time \(t\). For an elliptic problem they show that a Galerkin method can be written as a method using a Lagrange multiplier to impose continuity. Secondly they consider the classical mixed method and show that the solution of the bubble stabilized discontinuous Galerkin method is equivalent to the solution of the mixed method. For a parabolic problem first finite differences are considered which are the backward Euler and the Crank-Nicolson time discretizations. Stability of the backward Euler and the Crank-Nicolson discretizations is proven as in the work by \textit{I. H. Sloan} and \textit{V. Thomée} [SIAM J. Numer. Anal. 23, 1052--1061 (1986; Zbl 0608.65096)]. At the end of the paper numerical results are given for smooth and non-smooth solutions by tales and graphics.
