AbstractIn this paper, high-order Discontinuous Galerkin (DG) method is used to solve the two-dimensional Euler equations. A shock-capturing method based on the artificial viscosity technique is employed to handle physical discontinuities. Numerical tests show that the shocks can be captured within one element even on very coarse grids. The thickness of the shocks is dominated by the local mesh size and the local order of the basis functions. In order to obtain better shock resolution, a straightforwardhp-adaptivity strategy is introduced, which is based on the high-order contribution calculated using hierarchical basis. Numerical results indicate that thehp-adaptivity method is easy to implement and better shock resolution can be obtained with smaller local mesh size and higher local order.

In this article, we give a brief overview on high-order accurate shock capturing schemes with the aim of applications in compressible turbulence simulations. The emphasis is on the basic methodology and recent algorithm developments for two classes of high-order methods: the weighted essentially non-oscillatory and discontinuous Galerkin methods.

AbstractIn this paper, a high-order curved mesh generation method for Discontinuous Galerkin methods is introduced. First, a regular mesh is generated. Second, the solid surface is re-constructed using cubic polynomial. Third, the elastic governing equations are solved using high-order finite element method to provide a fully or partly curved grid. Numerical tests indicate that the intersection between element boundaries can be avoided by carefully defining the elasticity modulus.
