Novel Adaptive Hybrid Discontinuous Galerkin Algorithms for Elliptic Problems
Abstract
Abstract In this work, we develop novel adaptive hybrid discontinuous Galerkin algorithms for second-order elliptic problems. For this, two types of reliable and efficient, modulo a data-oscillation term, and fully computable a posteriori error estimators are developed: the first one is a simple residual type error estimator, and the second is a flux reconstruction based error estimator of a guaranteed type for polynomial approximations of any degree by using a simple postprocessing. These estimators can achieve high-order accuracy for both smooth and nonsmooth problems even with high-order approximations. In order to enhance the performance of adaptive algorithms, we introduce 𝐾-means clustering based marking strategy. The choice of marking parameter is crucial in the performance of the existing strategy such as maximum and bulk criteria; however, the optimal choice is not known. The new strategy has no unknown parameter. Several numerical examples are given to illustrate the performance of the new marking strategy along with our estimators.
