Main Article Content

Abdelhamid Zaghdani

Abstract

In this paper, a new augmented mixed DG formulation for the numerical approximation of the electrostatic field was introduced and studied. Its error analysis was carried out and an optimal error estimates as a function of the mesh size was obtained. Some numerical tests confirming the theoretical convergence were given.
