In this paper we introduce a high-order discontinuous Galerkin method for twodimensional incompressible flow in the vorticity stream-function formulation. The momentum equation is treated explicitly, utilizing the efficiency of the discontinuous Galerkin method. The stream function is obtained by a

โฆ Synopsis
We prove the convergence of a discontinuous Galerkin method approximating the 2-D incompressible Euler equations with discontinuous initial vorticity: ฯ 0 โ L 2 (โฆ). Furthermore, when ฯ 0 โ L โ (โฆ), the whole sequence is shown to be strongly convergent. This is the first convergence result in numerical approximations of this general class of discontinuous flows. Some important flows such as vortex patches belong to this class.

We present a matrix-free discontinuous Galerkin method for simulating compressible viscous flows in two-and three-dimensional moving domains. To this end, we solve the Navier-Stokes equations in an arbitrary Lagrangian Eulerian (ALE) framework. Spatial discretization is based on standard structured
