Applications such as LES or aero-acoustics demand high accuracy and low dispersion and hence are clear candidates for high order methods. DG methods produce stable discretizations of the convective operator for arbitrary accuracy orders. Moreover, Discontinuous Galerkin methods can be used with unstructured meshes of tetrahedra, which is a requirement for real-world complex geometries.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EPresented in the talk will be a description of a new class of hybridizable discontinuous Galerkin (HDG) methods for the numerical solution of the systems of conservation laws. In addition to possessing local conservativity, high-order accuracy, and strong stability for convection-dominated \ufb02ows, the proposed HDG methods result in a reduced number of globally coupled degrees of freedom than other DG methods. Our current framework allows us to consider in a uni\ufb01ed manner applications in CFD, solid mechanics and wave propagation.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EBIO:\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EJaime Peraire is the H.N. Slater Professor of Aeronautics and Astronautics and Head of the Department of Aeronautics and Astronautics at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. He graduated in Civil Engineering from the Polytechnic University of Barcelona (Spain) in 1983 and obtained a PhD in 1986 from the University of Wales (UK). He taught as a lecturer at the University of Wales from 1985 to 1989. During 1989 and 1993, he was a Reader at the Department of Aeronautics at Imperial College, London, and in 1993, he joined the faculty at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EHis areas of interest are computational aerodynamics as well as computational mechanics and optimization.
