Energy-preserving numerical methods for solving the Hodge wave equation is developed in this paper. Based on the de Rham complex, the Hodge wave equation can be formulated as a first-order system and mixed finite element methods using finite element exterior calculus is used to discretize the space. A continuous time Galerkin method, which can be viewed as a modification of the Crank-Nicolson method, is used to discretize the time which results in a full discrete method preserving the energy exactly when the source term is vanished. A projection based operator is used to establish the optimal order convergence of the proposed methods. Numerical experiments are present to support the theoretical results. |
