Application of the Galerkin/least-squares formulation to the analysis of hypersonic flows. I - Flow over a two-dimensional ramp

An FEM for the compressible Navier-Stokes equations is introduced. The discretization is based on entropy variables. The methodology is developed within the framework of a Galerkin/least-squares formulation to which a discontinuity-capturing operator is added. Results for three test cases selected among those of the Workshop on Hypersonic Flows for Reentry Problems are presented.

Application of the Galerkin/least-squares formulation to the analysis of hypersonic flows. II - Flow past a double ellipse

A finite element method for the compressible Navier-Stokes equations is introduced. The discretization is based on entropy variables. The methodology is developed within the framework of a Galerkin/least-squares formulation to which a discontinuity-capturing operator is added. Results for four test cases selected among those of the Workshop on Hypersonic Flows for Reentry Problems are presented.

The Galerkin/least-squares method for advective-diffusive equations

Galerkin/least-squares finite-element methods are presented for advective-diffusive equations. Galerkin/least-squares represents a conceptual simplification of streamline-upwind Petrov-Galerkin methods, and is in fact applicable to a wide variety of other problem types. A convergence analysis and error estimates are presented. Some numerical results for compressible Navier-Stokes flows are presented.
