Abstract

The present work is the second part of a pair of papers, considering Hybrid Discontinuous Galerkin methods with relaxed H(div)-conformity. The first part mainly dealt with presenting a robust analysis with respect to the mesh size h and the introduction of a reconstruction operator to restore divergence-conformity and pressure robustness (pressure independent velocity error estimates) using a modified force discretization. The aim of this part is the presentation of a high order polynomial robust analysis for the relaxed H(div)-conforming Hybrid Discontinuous Galerkin discretization of the two dimensional Stokes problem. It is based on the recently proven polynomial robust LBB-condition for BDM elements, Lederer and Schöberl (IMA J. Numer. Anal. (2017)) and is derived by a direct approach instead of using a best approximation Céa like result. We further treat the impact of the reconstruction operator on the hp analysis and present a numerical investigation considering polynomial robustness. We conclude the paper presenting an efficient operator splitting time integration scheme for the Navier-Stokes equations which is based on the methods recently presented in Lehrenfeld and Schöberl (Comp. Methods Appl. Mech. Eng. 307 (2016) 339-361) and includes the ideas of the reconstruction operator.
