hp-DGFEM for Maxwell’s equations

  • Conference paper
Numerical Mathematics and Advanced Applications

Summary

We propose hp-version interior penalty discontinuous Galerkin methods for the discretization of the curl-curl operator with divergence free constraint, often encountered in electromagnetic problems. For unstructured meshes with hanging nodes, we present error estimates that are optimal in the meshsize h and slightly suboptimal in the polynomial approximation order p. The performance of these methods is numerically tested for two-dimensional model problems.
