By utilizing a symmetric dual-wind DG (DWDG) spatial discretization and a backward Euler temporal discretization, we proposed a fully discrete scheme designed to solve a parabolic variational inequality. We also determined the rate of convergence of the error in space and time in suitable norms.

Contact set $\Omega_0(t)$ Read moreWe proposed and analyzed a numerically stable and convergent scheme for the convection-diffusion (CD) equation in the convection-dominated regime and derived a local order of convergence of $O(ℎ^{1.5})$ whenever the exact solution is of $𝐻^2(\Omega)$ regularity. The following figures illustrate a comparison between the exact and numerical solution from a particular numerical experiment.
