Abstract:This paper is concerned with the development of a formulation of the Finite Difference Method, in the solution of the transient diffusion-advection equation. In this approach, a weighting function with respect to time is used in the fundamental differential equation. By assuming a linear variation in some time interval, a time integration is performed. This integration reduces the order of time derivative in the basic equation and the initial conditions can be taken into account directly in consequence. Three … Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
