Discontinuous Petrov Galerkin for Poisson Problem on Unit Square


step2, a FENICS code which uses the Discontinuous Petrov Galerkin (DPG) method to solve a Poisson problem over the unit square with piecewise constant diffusivity kappa(x,y).

The program relies heavily on the ideas and implementation embodied in Jay Gopalakrishnan's dpg_laplace code.

Note that I have installed FENICS using Docker, and so to run this script I issue the commands:

  1. cd $HOME/fenicsproject/step2
  2. fenicsproject run
  3. python3 step2.py
  4. exit
