Extended modified cubic B-spline algorithm for nonlinear Burgers' equation

AbstractIn this paper, an extended modified cubic B-Spline differential quadrature method is proposed to approximate the solution of the nonlinear Burgers' equation. The proposed method is used in space and a five-stage and four order strong stability-preserving time-stepping Runge–Kutta (SSP-RK54) method is used in time. The accuracy and efficiency of the method is illustrated by considering four numerical problems. The numerical results of the method are compared with some existing methods and it was found that the proposed numerical method produces acceptable results and even more accurate results in comparison with some existing methods. The stability analysis of the scheme is also carried out and was found to be unconditionally stable

High-order numerical solutions using cubic splines

The cubic spline collocation procedure for the numerical solution of partial differential equations was reformulated so that the accuracy of the second-derivative approximation is improved and parallels that previously obtained for lower derivative terms. The final result is a numerical procedure having overall third-order accuracy for a nonuniform mesh and overall fourth-order accuracy for a uniform mesh. Application of the technique was made to the Burger's equation, to the flow around a linear corner, to the potential flow over a circular cylinder, and to boundary layer problems. The results confirmed the higher-order accuracy of the spline method and suggest that accurate solutions for more practical flow problems can be obtained with relatively coarse nonuniform meshes

Theoretical and computational structures on solitary wave solutions of Benjamin Bona Mahony-Burgers equation

This paper aims to obtain exact and numerical solutions of the nonlinear Benjamin Bona Mahony-Burgers (BBM-Burgers) equation. Here, we propose the modi ed Kudryashov method for getting the exact traveling wave solutions of BBM-Burgers equation and a septic B-spline collocation nite element method for numerical investigations. The numerical method is validated by studying solitary wave motion. Linear stability analysis of the numerical scheme is done with Fourier method based on von-Neumann theory. To show suitability and robustness of the new numerical algorithm, error norms L2, L1 and three invariants I1; I2 and I3 are calculated and obtained results are given both numerically and graphically. The obtained results state that our exact and numerical schemes ensure evident and they are penetrative mathematical instruments for solving nonlinear evolution equation

Galerkin finite element solution for benjamin-bona-mahony-burgers equation with cubic b-splines

In this article, we study solitary-wave solutions of the nonlinear Benjamin–Bona–Mahony– Burgers(BBM–Burgers) equation based on a lumped Galerkin technique using cubic Bspline finite elements for the spatial approximation. The existence and uniqueness of solutions of the Galerkin version of the solutions have been established. An accuracy analysis of the Galerkin finite element scheme for the spatial approximation has been well studied. The proposed scheme is carried out for four test problems including dispersion of single solitary wave, interaction of two, three solitary waves and development of an undular bore. Then we propose a full discrete scheme for the resulting IVP. Von Neumann theory is used to establish stability analysis of the full discrete numerical algorithm. To display applicability and durableness of the new scheme, error norms L2, L∞ and three invariants I1, I2 and I3 are computed and the acquired results are demonstrated both numerically and graphically. The obtained results specify that our new scheme ensures an apparent and an operative mathematical instrument for solving nonlinear evolution equation

Septic B spline collocation method for the numerical solution of the modified equal width wave equation

Numerical solutions of the modified equal width wave equation are obtained by using collocation method with septic B-spline finite elements with three different linearization techniques. The motion of a single solitary wave, interaction of two solitary waves and birth of solitons are studied using the proposed method. Accuracy of the method is discussed by computing the numerical conserved laws error norms L2 and L∞. The numerical results show that the present method is a remarkably successful numerical technique for solving the MEW equation. A linear stability analysis shows that this numerical scheme, based on a Crank Nicolson approximation in time, is unconditionally stable
