A simulation model of the human body is developed in frequency dependent Crank Nicolson finite difference time domain (FD-CN-FDTD) method. Numerical simulation of electromagnetic wave propagation inside the human head is presented. Advantages of using time discretization beyond the Courant Friedrich-Lewy (CFL) limit in FD-CN-FDTD method are shown. Parallelization using Open Multi-Processing (Op...

. In this paper, we develop a quadratic spline collocation method for integrating the nonlinear partial differential equations (PDEs) of a plug flow reactor model. The method is proposed in order to be used for the operation of control design and/or numerical simulations. We first present the Crank-Nicolson method to temporally discretize the state variable. Then, we develop and analyze the pro...

Abstract. This article is devoted to the study of the finite element approximation for a nonlocal nonlinear parabolic problem. Using a linearised Crank-Nicolson Galerkin finite element method for a nonlinear reaction-diffusion equation, we establish the convergence and error bound for the fully discrete scheme. Moreover, important results on exponential decay and vanishing of the solutions in f...

• We discretize the 2D peridynamics equation using a time Crank-Nicolson/spatial asymptotically compatible scheme. The boundary conditions prevent. corner reflections for peridynamics. numerical stability condition is proven. aim of this paper to construct accurate absorbing (ABCs) two-dimensional motion which describes nonlocal phenomena arising in continuum mechanics based on integrodifferent...

Systems of nonlinear partial differential equations modeling turbulent fluid flow and similar processes present special challanges in numerical analysis. Regions of stability of implicit-explicit methods are reviewed, and an energy norm based on Dahlquist’s concept of G-stability is developed. Using this norm, a time-stepping Crank-Nicolson Adams-Bashforth 2 implicit-explicit method for solving...

In this paper, we consider the time dependent Maxwell’s equations when dispersive media are involved. The Crank-Nicolson mixed finite element methods are developed for three most popular dispersive medium models: the isotropic cold plasma, the one-pole Debye medium and the two-pole Lorentz medium. Optimal error estimates are proved for all three models solved by the Raviart-Thomas-Nédélec space...

In this paper, we develop the Crank-Nicolson finite difference method (C-N-FDM) to solve the linear time-fractional diffusion equation, formulated with Caputo’s fractional derivative. Special attention is given to study the stability of the proposed method which is introduced by means of a recently proposed procedure akin to the standard Von-Neumann stable analysis. Some numerical examples are ...
