Abstract

In this paper, we propose the local discontinuous Galerkin method based on the generalized alternating numerical flux for solving the one-dimensional nonlinear Burger's equation with Dirichlet boundary conditions. Based on the Hopf-Cole transformation, the original equation is transformed into a linear heat conduction equation with homogeneous Neumann boundary conditions. We will show that this method preserves stability. By virtue of the generalized Gauss-Radau projection, we can obtain the sub-optimal rate of convergence in \(L^2\)-norm of \(\mathcal{O}(h^{k+\frac{1}{2}})\) with polynomial of degree \(k\) and grid size \(h\). Numerical experiments are given to verify the theoretical results.
