Goal-oriented anisotropic $hp$-adaptive discontinuous Galerkin method for the Euler equations (2007.06840v1)

Abstract: We deal with the numerical solution of the compressible Euler equations with the aid of the discontinuous Galerkin (DG) method with focus on the goal-oriented error estimates and adaptivity. We analyze the adjoint consistency of the DG scheme where the dual problem is not formulated by the differentiation of the DG form and the target functional but using a suitable linearization of the nonlinear forms. Further, we present the goal-oriented anisotropic $hp$-mesh adaptation technique for the Euler equations. The theoretical results are supported by numerical experiments.
