Abstract

In this work we present the Cartesian grid discontinuous Galerkin (cgDG) finite element method, a novel numerical technique that combines the high accuracy and efficiency of a high-order discontinuous Galerkin discretization with the simplicity and hierarchical structure of a geometry-independent Ca...
