On the fourth-order accurate compact ADI scheme for solving the unsteady Nonlinear Coupled Burgers' Equations
The two-dimensional unsteady coupled Burgers' equations with moderate to
severe gradients, are solved numerically using higher-order accurate finite
difference schemes; namely the fourth-order accurate compact ADI scheme, and
the fourth-order accurate Du Fort Frankel scheme. The question of numerical
stability and convergence are presented. Comparisons are made between the
present schemes in terms of accuracy and computational efficiency for solving
problems with severe internal and boundary gradients. The present study shows
that the fourth-order compact ADI scheme is stable and efficient
High-order numerical methods for 2D parabolic problems in single and composite domains
In this work, we discuss and compare three methods for the numerical
approximation of constant- and variable-coefficient diffusion equations in both
single and composite domains with possible discontinuity in the solution/flux
at interfaces, considering (i) the Cut Finite Element Method; (ii) the
Difference Potentials Method; and (iii) the summation-by-parts Finite
Difference Method. First we give a brief introduction for each of the three
methods. Next, we propose benchmark problems, and consider numerical tests-with
respect to accuracy and convergence-for linear parabolic problems on a single
domain, and continue with similar tests for linear parabolic problems on a
composite domain (with the interface defined either explicitly or implicitly).
Lastly, a comparative discussion of the methods and numerical results will be
given.Comment: 45 pages, 12 figures, in revision for Journal of Scientific Computin
