The discontinuous Galerkin spectral element method (DGSEM) is a compact and high-order method applicable to complex meshes. However, the aliasing errors in simulating under-resolved vortex flows and non-physical oscillations in simulating shock waves may lead to instability of the DGSEM. In this pap...

description The discontinuous Galerkin spectral element method (DGSEM) is a compact and high-order method applicable to complex meshes. However, the aliasing errors in simulating under-resolved vortex flows and non-physical oscillations in simulating shock waves may lead to instability of the DGSEM. In this paper, an entropy-stable DGSEM (ESDGSEM) based on subcell limiting is proposed to improve the non-linear stability of the method. First, we discuss the stability and resolution of the entropy-stable DGSEM based on different solution points. Second, a provably entropy-stable DGSEM based on subcell limiting is established on Legendre–Gauss (LG) solution points. Numerical experiments demonstrate that the ESDGSEM-LG scheme is superior in non-linear stability and resolution, and ESDGSEM-LG with subcell limiting is robust in shock-capturing.
