Advanced Galerkin Finite-Element Techniques

  • Chapter
Computational Galerkin Methods

Part of the book series: Springer Series in Computational Physics ((SCIENTCOMP))

Abstract

In this chapter we examine some of the techniques that have been combined with the Galerkin method to overcome specific deficiencies and to give an improved performance. The important category of generating algorithms for convection-dominated flows will be dealt with in chapter 7.
