khp-adaptive spectral projection based discontinuous Galerkin method for the numerical solution of wave equations with memory

In this paper, we present an adaptive spectral projection based finite element method to numerically approximate the solution of the wave equation with memory. The adaptivity is not restricted to the mesh (hp-adaptivity), but it is also applied to the size of the computed spectrum (k-adaptivity). The meshes are refined using a residual based error estimator, while the size of the computed spectrum is adapted using the L2 norm of the error of the projected data. We show that the approach can be very efficient and accurate. (c) 2023 The Author(s). Published by Elsevier B.V.
