A Conservation Constrained Runge-Kutta Discontinuous Galerkin Method with the Improved CFL Condition for Conservation Laws

چکیده
We present a new formulation of the Runge-Kutta discontinuous Galerkin (RKDG) method [6, 5, 4, 3] for conservation Laws. The new formulation requires the computed RKDG solution in a cell to satisfy additional conservation constraint in adjacent cells and does not increase the complexity or change the compactness of the RKDG method. We use this new formulation to solve conservation laws on one-dimensional grids with piecewise cubic polynomial approximation as well as on two-dimensional unstructured grids with piecewise quadratic polynomial approximation. The hierarchical reconstruction [12, 24] is applied as a limiter to eliminate spurious oscillations. Numerical computations for scalar and systems of nonlinear hyperbolic conservation laws are performed. We find that: 1) this new formulation improves the CFL number over the original RKDG formulation and thus reduces the overall complexity; 2) the new formulation improves the robustness of the DG scheme with the current limiting strategy and improves the resolution of the numerical solutions in multi-dimensions.

In this paper we present the analysis for the Runge-Kutta discontinuous Galerkin (RKDG) method to solve scalar conservation laws, where the time discretization is the third order explicit total variation diminishing Runge–Kutta (TVDRK3) method.

متن کاملA priori error estimates to smooth solutions of the third order Runge-Kutta discontinuous Galerkin method for symmetrizable systems of conservation laws
In this paper we present an a priori error estimate of the Runge-Kutta discontinuous Galerkin method for solving symmetrizable conservation laws, where the time is discretized with the third order explicit total variation diminishing Runge-Kutta method and the finite element space is made up of piecewise polynomials of degree k ≥ 2. Quasi-optimal error estimate is obtained by energy techniques,...
