The numerical approximation of partial differential equations (PDEs) posed on complicated geometries, which include a large number of small geometrical features or microstructures, represents a challenging computational problem. Indeed, the use of st... Read More about Review of Discontinuous Galerkin Finite Element Methods for Partial Differential Equations on Complicated Domains.

Efficient and reliable hp-FEM estimates for quadratic eigenvalue problems and photonic crystal applications (2016)
Journal Article
Engström, C., Giani, S., & Grubišić, L. (2016). Efficient and reliable hp-FEM estimates for quadratic eigenvalue problems and photonic crystal applications. Computers and Mathematics with Applications, 72(4), 952-973. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.camwa.2016.06.001

We present a-posteriori analysis of higher order finite element approximations (hp-FEM) for quadratic Fredholm-valued operator functions. Residual estimates for approximations of the algebraic eigenspaces are derived and we reduce the analysis of the...

Two dimensional configurational-force-driven crack propagation using the discontinuous Galerkin method with rp-adaptivity (2016)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Bird, R., Coombs, W., & Giani, S. (2023, March). Two dimensional configurational-force-driven crack propagation using the discontinuous Galerkin method with rp-adaptivity. Presented at ACME - UK 2016 24th Conference of the Association for Computational Mechanics in Engineering., Cardiff, UK

This paper presents a quasi-static configurational force (CF) brittle fracture propagation method, [1], using the discontinuous Galerkin (dG) symmetric interior penalty (SIP) method, [2]. The method is derived from the first law of thermodynamics wit...

Topology optimisation using level set methods and the discontinuous Galerkin method (2016)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Adams, T., Giani, S., & Coombs, W. (2023, March). Topology optimisation using level set methods and the discontinuous Galerkin method. Presented at ACME - UK 2016 24th Conference of the Association for Computational Mechanics in Engineering., Cardiff, UK

This paper presents a topology optimisation approach that combines an adjoint-based sensitivity analysis [1] with level set methods (LSM) [2] for front propagation, and the discontinuous Galerkin (DG) symmetric interior penalty (SIP) method [3]. The... Read More about Topology optimisation using level set methods and the discontinuous Galerkin method.
