In this paper we give stability analysis and error estimates for the recently introduced central discontinuous Galerkin method when applied to linear hyperbolic equations. A comparison between the central discontinuous Galerkin method and the regular discontinuous Galerkin method in this context is also made. Numerical experiments are provided to validate the quantitative conclusions from the a...

in this paper, the stability characteristics of single-walled carbon nanotubes (swcnts) under the action of axial load are investigated. to this end, a nonlocal flügge shell model is developed to accommodate the small length scale effects. the analytical rayleigh-ritz method with beam functions is applied to the variational statement derived from the flügge-type buckling equations. molecular dy...

Pollution has become a very serious threat to our environment. Monitoring pollution is the rst step toward planning to save the environment. The use of dierential equations, monitoring pollution has become possible. In this paper, a Ritz-collocation method is introduced to solve non-linear oscillatory systems such as modelling the pollution of a system of lakes. The method is based upon Bernoul...

Proliferation of degrees-of-freedom has plagued discontinuous Galerkin methodology from its inception over 30 years ago. This paper develops a new computational formulation that combines the advantages of discontinuous Galerkin methods with the data structure of their continuous Galerkin counterparts. The new method uses local, element-wise problems to project a continuous finite element space ...

We study a multiscale discontinuous Galerkin method introduced in [10] that reduces the computational complexity of the discontinuous Galerkin method, seemingly without adversely affecting the quality of results. For a stabilized variant we are able to obtain the same error estimates for the advection-diffusion equation as for the usual discontinuous Galerkin method. We assess the stability of ...

In this paper, a central discontinuous Galerkin method is proposed to solve for the viscosity solutions of Hamilton-Jacobi equations. Central discontinuous Galerkin methods were originally introduced for hyperbolic conservation laws. They combine the central scheme and the discontinuous Galerkin method and therefore carry many features of both methods. Since Hamilton-Jacobi equations in general...

In this paper, we consider sampling in a reproducing kernel subspace of L. We introduce a pre-reconstruction operator associated with a sampling scheme and propose a Galerkin reconstruction in general Banach space setting. We show that the proposed Galerkin method provides a quasi-optimal approximation, and the corresponding Galerkin equations could be solved by an iterative approximation-proje...
