| Shrnutí: | As an extension of our previous work in [41], we develop a discontinuous Galerkin method for solving cross-diffusion systems with a formal gradient flow structure. These systems are associated with non-increasing entropy functionals. For a class of problems, the positivity (non-negativity) of solutions is also expected, which is implied by the physical model and is crucial to the entropy structure. The semi-discrete numerical scheme we propose is entropy stable. Furthermore, the scheme is also compatible with the positivity-preserving procedure in [43] in many scenarios, hence the resulting fully discrete scheme is able to produce non-negative solutions. The method can be applied to both one-dimensional problems and two-dimensional problems on Cartesian meshes. Numerical examples are given to examine the performance of the method. |
