A Hybridizable Discontinuous Galerkin Method for Magnetic Advection–Diffusion Problems.

We propose and analyze a hybridizable discontinuous Galerkin (HDG) method for solving a mixed magnetic advection–diffusion problem within a more general Friedrichs system framework. With carefully constructed numerical traces, we introduce two distinct stabilization parameters: τ t for the tangential trace and τ n for the normal trace. These parameters are tailored to satisfy different requirements, ensuring the stability and convergence of the method. Furthermore, we incorporate a weight function to facilitate the establishment of stability conditions. We also investigate an elementwise postprocessing technique that proves to be effective for both two-dimensional and three-dimensional problems in terms of broken H (curl) semi-norm accuracy improvement. Extensive numerical examples are presented to showcase the performance and effectiveness of the HDG method and the postprocessing techniques. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
