In discussing finite difference methods for the solution of hyperbolic par t ia l differential equations, STETrER [1] used est imates on some absolutely convergent Fourier series to prove stabi l i ty and instabi l i ty with respect to uniform convergence. I f / , a complex valued function on the circle, has an absolutely convergent Fourier series, then the n-th power of ] also has an absolutel...

Three numerical methods have been used to solve the one-dimensional advection-diffusion equation with constant coefficients. This partial differential equation is dissipative but not dispersive. We consider the Lax-Wendroff scheme which is explicit, the Crank-Nicolson scheme which is implicit, and a nonstandard finite difference scheme (Mickens 1991). We solve a 1D numerical experiment with spe...

The dispersion and dissipation properties of numerical methods are very important in wave simulations. In this paper, such properties are analyzed for Runge-Kutta discontinuous Galerkin methods and Lax-Wendroff discontinuous Galerkin methods when solving the linear advection equation. With the standard analysis, the asymptotic formulations are derived analytically for the discrete dispersion re...

This study proposes one-dimensional advection diffusion equation (ADE) with finite differences method (FDM) using spreadsheet simulation (ADESS). By changing only the values of weighted parameter with ADESS model, solutions are obtained for the FTSC, Upwind and Lax Wendroff schemes. Two examples which, have the numerical and analytical solutions in literature, are solved in order to test the pr...

Spurious currents near an interface between different phases are a common undesirable feature of the lattice Boltzmann equation (LBE) method for two-phase systems. In this paper, we show that the spurious currents of a kinetic theory-based LBE have a significant dependence on the parity of the grid number of the underlying lattice, which can be attributed to the chequerboard effect. A technique...

is obtained where A (u) is the Jacobian matrix of the components of / with respect to the components of u. Equation (1.2) is said to be hyperbolic if the eigenvalues of the matrix pi + 6A are real for all real numbers m, 0. Several authors have proposed finite-difference schemes for the numerical integration of (1.1) (or (1.2)). In [6], Lax and Wendroff introduced an explicit scheme which is st...
