Popis: The suitability of a discretization method is highly dependent on the shape of the domain. Finite difference schemes are typically efficient, but struggle with complex geometry, while finite element methods are expensive but well suited for complex geometries. In this paper we propose a provably stable hybrid method for a 2D advection–diffusion problem, using a class of inner product compatible projection operators to couple the non-conforming grids that arise due to varying the discretization method throughout the domain.
