Abstract:In this paper, we develop a new numerical method for solving a timedependent convection-diffusion equation with Dirichlet's type boundary conditions. We first propose the θ-method, θ ∈ [1/2, 1] (θ = 1 corresponds to the back-ward Euler method and θ = 1/2 corresponds to the Crank-Nicolson method) to discretize the temporal variable, resulting in a linear partial differential equation (PDE). To numerically solve this linear PDE, we develop and we analyze a new cubic spline collocation method for the spatial disc… 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.
