“…Discontinuous Galerkin (DG) methods have become increasingly popular for Large Eddy Simulation (LES) and Direct Numerical Simulation (DNS) of turbulent flows over the last two decades, as shown by the large number of paper devoted to this topic, among which we mention for example [1], [4], [7], [8], [56], [28], [47], [54], [55], [59]. The remarkable accuracy of DG methods implies however that a larger number of degrees of freedom is employed with respect to continuous finite elements approache, and, as a consequence, a higher computational cost is required.…”
