Abstract

We present a new a priori stability and convergence analysis for the local discontinuous Galerkin method applied to the instationary Darcy problem formulated on a d‐dimensional polytope with nonhomogeneous Neumann and Dirichlet boundary conditions. In addition to including a spatially and temporally varying permeability tensor into all estimates, the utilized analysis technique produces a convergence order result for the primary and the flux variables. The only stabilization in the proposed scheme is represented by a penalty term in the primary unknown, and our analysis provides some insights into the role played by this particular choice of stabilization. © 2016 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
