Description
Summary:In this paper, we propose the local discontinuous Galerkin method based on the generalized alternating numerical flux for solving the one-dimensional second-order wave equation with the periodic boundary conditions. Introducing two auxiliary variables, the second-order equation is rewritten into the first-order equation systems. We prove the stability and energy conservation of this method. By virtue of the generalized Gauss–Radau projection, we can obtain the optimal convergence order in L2-norm of Ohk+1 with polynomial of degree k and grid size h. Numerical experiments are given to verify the theoretical results.
