An explicit hybridizable discontinuous Galerkin method for the 3D time-domain Maxwell equations

Description

We present an explicit hybridizable discontinuous Galerkin (HDG) method for numerically solving the system of three-dimensional (3D) time-domain Maxwell equations. The method is fully explicit similarly to classical so-called DGTD (Dis-continuous Galerkin Time-Domain) methods, is also high-order accurate in both space and time and can be seen as a generalization of the classical DGTD scheme based on upwind fluxes. We provide numerical results aiming at assessing its numerical convergence properties by considering a model problem and we present preliminary results of the superconvergence property on the H curl norm.
