High-order variational Lagrangian schemes for compressible fluids
Abstract
We present high-order variational Lagrangian finite element methods for compressible fluids using a discrete energetic variational approach. Our spatial discretization is mass/momentum/energy conserving and entropy stable. Fully implicit time stepping is used for the temporal discretization, which allows for a much larger time step size for stability compared to explicit methods, especially for low-Mach number flows and/or on highly distorted meshes. Ample numerical results are presented to showcase the good performance of our proposed scheme.
