Abstract

In this paper, we prove the convergence of a class of discontinuous Galerkin methods for solving the fully coupled incompressible two-phase flow problem in the non-degenerate case. Estimates in both the mesh size and the polynomial degrees are obtained. Numerical convergence rates confirm the theoretical results.
