A Performance Comparison of Continuous and Discontinuous Finite Element Shallow Water Models
We present a comparative study of two finite element shallow water equation (SWE) models: a generalized wave continuity equation based continuous Galerkin (CG) model—an approach used by several existing SWE models—and a recently developed discontinuous Galerkin (DG) model. While DG methods are known to possess a number of favorable properties, such as local mass conservation, one commonly cited...
متن کاملA mixed discontinuous/continuous finite element pair for shallow-water ocean modelling
We introduce a mixed discontinuous/continuous finite element pair for ocean modelling, with continuous quadratic layer thickness and discontinuous velocity. We investigate the finite element pair applied to the linear shallow-water equations on an f -plane. The element pair has the property that all geostrophically balanced states which strongly satisfy the boundary conditions have discrete div...
متن کاملDiscontinuous Galerkin finite element method for shallow two-phase flows
We present a discontinuous Galerkin finite element method for two depth-averaged two-phase flow models. One of these models contains nonconservative products for which we developed a discontinuous Galerkin finite element formulation in Rhebergen et al. (2008) J. Comput. Phys. 227, 1887-1922. The other model is a new depth-averaged two-phase flow model we introduce for shallow two-phase flows th...
متن کاملContinuous and Discontinuous Finite Element Methods for Convection-Diffusion Problems: A Comparison
We compare numerically the performance of a new continuous-discontinuous finite element method (CDFEM) for linear convection-diffusion equations with three well-known upwind finite element formulations, namely with the streamline upwind Petrov-Galerkin finite element method, the residualfree bubble method and the discontinuous Galerkin finite element method. The defining feature of the CDFEM is...
متن کاملImplementation of the Continuous-Discontinuous Galerkin Finite Element Method
For the stationary advection-diffusion problem the standard continuous Galerkin method is unstable without some additional control on the mesh or method. The interior penalty discontinuous Galerkin method is stable but at the expense of an increased number of degrees of freedom. The hybrid method proposed in [5] combines the computational complexity of the continuous method with the stability o...
