APPLICATION OF HP-DISCONTINUOUS GALERKIN FINITE ELEMENT METHODS TO THE ROTATING DISK ELECTRODE PROBLEMS IN ELECTROCHEMISTRY

This paper presents the interior penalty discontinuous Galerkin finite element methods (DGFEM) for solving the rotating disk electrode problems in electrochemistry. We present results for the simple E reaction mechanism (convection-diffusion equations), the EC' reaction mechanism (reaction-convection-diffusion equation) and the ECE and $EC_2E$ reaction mechanisms (linear and nonlinear systems of reaction-convection-diffusion equations, respectively). All problems will be in one dimension.
