الوصف: In this paper, we study the superconvergence of the discontinuous Galerkin solutions for nonlinear hyperbolic partial differential equations. On the first inflow element we prove that the p-degree discontinuous finite element solution converges at Radau points with an O(h p+2) rate. We further show that the solution flux converges on average at O(h 2p+2)) on element outflow boundary when no reaction terms are present. Globally, we prove that the flux converges at O(h 2p+1) on average at the outflow of smooth-solution regions for nonlinear conservation laws. Numerical computations indicate that our results extend to nonrectangular meshes and nonuniform polynomial degrees. We further include a numerical example which shows that discontinuous solutions are superconvergent to the unique entropy solution away from shock discontinuities. ; Published in Computer Methods in Applied Mechanics and Engineering, v195 p3331-3346, 2006.
