Research Project

My project is entitled "Analysis of Space-time Hybridizable Discontinuous Galerkin Methods for Incompressible Flows".  The space-time HDG method is a competitive candidate for the numerical solution of time-dependent partial differential equations on moving and deforming domains.  The goal of the project is to rigorously justify the observed stability and convergence of a space-time HDG method for the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations on time-dependent domains.
