also technical report TR10-23: pdf.
This paper analyzes the surface/subsurface flow coupled with transport. The flow is modeled by the coupling of Navier–Stokes and Darcy equations. The transport of a species is modeled by a convection-dominated parabolic equation. The two-way coupling between flow and transport is nonlinear and it is done via the velocity field and the viscosity. This problem arises from a variety of natural phenomena such as the contamination of the groundwater through rivers. The main result is existence and stability bounds of a weak solution.

This paper presents a two-grid method for solving systems of partial differential equations modelling incompressible free flow coupled with porous media flow. This work considers both the coupled Stokes and Darcy as well as the coupled Navier–Stokes and Darcy problems. The numerical schemes proposed are based on combinations of the continuous finite element method and the discontinuous Galerkin method. Numerical errors and convergence rates for solutions obtained from the two-grid method are presented. CPU times for the two-grid algorithm are shown to be significantly less than those obtained by solving the fully coupled problem.

"Convergence of a discontinuous Galerkin method for the miscible displacement under low regularity", SIAM Journal on Numerical Analysis, 49, p. 1085-1110, 2011, also technical report TR09-18: pdf.
Discontinuous Galerkin time discretizations are combined with the mixed finite element and continuous finite element methods to solve the miscible displacement problem. Stable schemes of arbitrary order in space and time are obtained. Under low regularity assumptions on the data, convergence of the scheme is proved by using compactness results for functions that may be discontinuous in time.

The coupling of cell-centered finite volume method with primal discontinuous Galerkin method is introduced in this paper for elliptic problems.

"Discontinuous Galerkin Methods for Convection-Diffusion Equations with varying and vanishing diffusivity",
International Journal of Numerical Analysis and Modeling, 6 (4), p.533-561, 2009: pdf
This work formulates and analyzes a new family of discontinuous
Galerkin methods for the time-dependent convection-diffusion equation with
highly varying diffusion coefficients, that do not require the use of slope limiting
techniques. The proposed methods are based on the standard NIPG/SIPG
techniques, but use special diffusive numerical fluxes at some important interfaces.
The resulting numerical solutions have an L2 error that is significantly
smaller than the error obtained with standard discontinuous Galerkin methods.
Theoretical convergence results are also obtained.

In this work, we couple the incompressible steady Navier–Stokes equations with the Darcy equations, by means of the Beavers–Joseph–Saffman's condition on the interface. Under suitable smallness conditions on the data, we prove existence of a weak solution as well as some a priori estimates. We establish local uniqueness when the data satisfy additional smallness restrictions. Then we propose a discontinuous Galerkin scheme for discretizing the equations and do its numerical analysis.

Journal of Scientific Computing, 40, p.115-140, 2009 (doi 10.1007/s10915-009-9274-4).
This paper introduces and analyzes a numerical method based on discontinuous finite element methods for solving the two-dimensional coupled problem of time-dependent incompressible Navier-Stokes equations with the Darcy equations through Beavers-Joseph-Saffman's condition on the interface. The proposed method employs Crank-Nicolson discretization in time (which requires one step of a first order scheme namely backward Euler) and primal DG method in space. With the correct assumption on the first time step optimal error estimates are obtained that are high order in space and second order in time.

In this paper, we combine a Tikhonov regularization with a discontinuous Galerkin method to solve an inverse problem in one-dimension. We show that the regularization is simpler than in the case of the inversion using continuous finite elements.

in time. The estimates in the energy norm are optimal with respect to the
mesh size and suboptimal with respect to the polynomial degree. The proposed
scheme is of high order as polynomial approximations of pressure and concentration
can take any degree. In addition, the method can handle different types

"Discontinuous Galerkin finite element approximation of nonlinear non-Fickian diffusion in viscoelastic polymers",
SIAM Journal on Numerical Analysis, to appear, 2006, also technical report BICOM 04/03.
We consider discrete schemes for a nonlinear model of non-Fickian diffusion in
viscoelastic polymers. The model is motivated by, but not the same as,
that proposed by Cohen et al. in SIAM J.~Appl.~Math.,
55, pp.~348--368, 1995. The spatial discretization is effected with
both the symmetric and non-symmetric interior penalty discontinuous Galerkin
finite element method, and the time discretisation is of Crank-Nicolson
type. We also discuss two means of handling the nonlinearity: either implicitly,
which requires the solution of nonlinear equations at each time level, or
through a linearisation based on extrapolating from previous time levels.
The same optimal orders of convergence are proven in both cases and numerical
results are also given. These results indicate that the model is capable of
capturing physical effects that have been experimentally observed.

with respect to uniform mesh refinement or increase in the polynomial degree are considered.
Compared to sequential discontinuous schemes, our proposed schemes do not require slope
limiting or upwind stabilization techniques. Numerical
examples of homogeneous and heterogeneous media on structured and unstructured meshes show the

A posteriori error estimates for locally mass conservative methods for subsurface
flow are presented. These methods are based on discontinuous approximation spaces and
referred as Discontinuous Galerkin methods. In the case where penalty terms are added
to the bilinear form, one obtain the Non-symmetric Interior Penalty Galerkin methods.

"Discontinuous Galerkin finite element methods for linear elasticity and quasistatic
linear viscoelasticity", Numerische Mathematik, Volume 95, Number 2 pp. 347--376, 2003
postscript , pdf
We consider a finite element in space, and quadrature in time discretization of a compressible
linear quasistatic viscoelasticity problem. The spatial discretization uses a discontinuous
Galerkin finite element method based on polynomials of degree r - termed DG(r)-and the time
discretization uses a trapezoidal-rectangle rule approximation to the Volterra (history)
integral. Both semi- and fully-discrete a priori error estimates are derived without recourse
to Gronwall's inequality, and therefore the error bounds do not show exponential growth in
time. Moreover, the convergence rates are optimal in both h and r providing that the finite
element space contains a globally continuous interpolant to the exact solution. When this is
not the case, the convergence rate is suboptimal in r but remains optimal in h. We also
consider a reduction of the problem to standard linear elasticity where similarly
optimal a priori error estimates are derived for the DG(r) approximation.

In this paper we derive optimal a priori L_infty(L2) error estimates for mixed finite
element displacement formulations of the acoustic wave equation. The computational
complexity of this approach is equivalent to the traditional mixed finite element
formulations of the second order hyperbolic equations in which the primary unknowns
are pressure and the gradient of pressure. However, the displacement formulations
with the physical variables of interest, displacement and pressure, requires less
regularity on the displacement.

We analyze three discontinuous Galerkin approximations for solving elliptic
problems in two or three dimensions. In each one, the basic bilinear form is nonsymmetric:
the first one has a penalty term on edges, the second has one constraint per edge, and
the third is totally unconstrained. For each of them we prove hp error estimates in the H1
norm, optimal with respect to h, the mesh size, and nearly optimal with respect to p, the
degree of polynomial approximation. We establish these results for general elements in
two and three dimensions. For the unconstrained method, we establish a new approximation
result valid on simplicial elements. L2 estimates are also derived for the
three methods.

Three Galerkin methods using discontinuous approximation spaces are introduced to
solve elliptic problems. The underlying bilinear form for all three methods is
the same and is nonsymmetric. In one case, a penalty is added to the form and
in another, a constraint on jumps on each face of the triangulation. All three
methods are locally conservative and the third one is not restricted. Optimal
