Nodal Discontinuous Galerkin Methods Algorithms, Analysis, and Applications

This book discusses a family of computational methods, known as discontinuous Galerkin methods, for solving partial differential equations. While these methods have been known since the early 1970s, they have experienced an almost explosive growth interest during the last ten to fifteen years, leadi...
