A kind of compressible miscible displacement problems which include molecular diffusion and dispersion in porous media are investigated.A symmetric interior penalty discontinuous Galerkin (SIPG) method is applied to the coupled system of flow and transport.Using the induction hypotheses instead of the cut-off operator and the interpolation projection properties,a priori hp error estimates are presented.The error bounds in L2(H1) norm for concentration and in L∞(L2) norm for velocity are optimal in h and suboptimal in p with a loss of power 1/2.

In this paper,we investigate the superconvergence property of the numerical solution to a quadratic elliptic control problem by using mixed finite element methods.The state and co-state are approximated by the order k=1 Raviart-Thomas mixed finite element spaces and the control variable is approximated by piecewise constant functions.We prove the superconvergence error estimate of h3/2 in L2-norm between the approximated solution and the average L2 projection of the control.Moreover,by the postprocessing technique,a quadratic superconvergence result of the control is derived.
A combined mixed finite element and discontinuous Galerkin method for a compressible miscible displacement problem which includes molecular diffusion and dispersion in porous media is investigated. That is to say, the mixed finite element method with Raviart-Thomas space is applied to the flow equation, and the transport one is solved by the symmetric interior penalty discontinuous Galerkin （SIPG） approximation. Based on projection interpolations and induction hypotheses, a superconvergence estimate is obtained. During the analysis, an extension of the Darcy velocity along the Gauss line is also used in the evaluation of the coefficients in the Galerkin procedure for the concentration.
