New error estimates of Lagrange-Galerkin methods for the advection equation
We study in this paper new developments of the Lagrange-Galerkin method for the advection equation. In the first part of the article we present a new improved error estimate of the conventional Lagrange-Galerkin method. In the second part, we introduce a new local projection stabilized Lagrange-Galerkin method, whereas in the third part we introduce and analyze a discontinuity-capturing Lagrange-Galerkin method. Also, attention has been paid to the influence of the quadrature rules on the stability and accuracy of the methods via numerical experiments.
