A Flexible Galerkin Finite Element Method with an A Posteriori Discontinuous Finite Element Error Estimation for Hyperbolic Problems

A Flexible Galerkin Finite Element Method (FGM) is a hybrid class of finite element methods that combine the usual continuous Galerkin method with the now popular discontinuous Galerkin method (DGM). A detailed description of the formulation of the FGM on a hyperbolic partial differential equation,...
