ABSTRACT

Discontinuous Finite Element Methods have been widely used
in the approximation of hyperbolic problems, mainly due
to the strong relationship with Finite Volume Methods.

In my talk I will present an approximation of
the diffusion operator using this framework to
discretize the full convection-diffusion problem with
discontinuous elements.
