AMSC 664: <strong>2D</strong> <strong>Spectral</strong> <strong>Element</strong> <strong>Scheme</strong> <strong>for</strong> <strong>Viscous</strong> Burgers’ <strong>Equation</strong> 19<br />

P-type Refinement<br />

● With the local matrices stored <strong>for</strong> all values of P, and the ability<br />

to per<strong>for</strong>m local operations and build the global solution, it is now<br />

trivial to compute the derivative of the local solution and per<strong>for</strong>m<br />

error analysis with it.<br />

● For example, if the slope of our solution at a local element is<br />

greater than some user defined value, then we increase the polynomial<br />

degree of that element by one.<br />

● We per<strong>for</strong>m this on each element and then construct a new local<br />

to global mapping with respect to the new elements.<br />
