We present the stability analysis of all the methods in the natural energy norm and derive optimal a-priori error estimates. For the displacement-stress formulation, schemes preserving the total energy of the system are introduced and discussed. We include some numerical experiments in three dimensions to verify the theory.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2013-10-30T09:53:42.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "65M60", "73V05", "65M10" ], "keywords": [ "stability analysis", "derive optimal a-priori error estimates", "natural energy norm", "general elastodynamics problem", "semi-discrete discontinuous galerkin approximations" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 32, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2013arXiv1310.8084A" } } }
