Finite-Difference Schemes for the Diffusion Equation

چکیده

Abst rac t . The Crank-Nicolson scheme is widely used to solve numerically the diffusion equation, because of its good stability properties. It is, however, ill-behaved when large time-steps are used: the short wave-lengths may happen to be less damped than the long ones. A detailed analysis of this flaw is performed and an Mternative scheme is proposed, which removes this difficulty while preserving all other good properties (unconditional stability and second-order accuracy).

Positivity-preserving nonstandard finite difference Schemes for simulation of advection-diffusion reaction equations

Systems in which reaction terms are coupled to diffusion and advection transports arise in a wide range of chemical engineering applications, physics, biology and environmental. In these cases, the components of the unknown can denote concentrations or population sizes which represent quantities and they need to remain positive. Classical finite difference schemes may produce numerical drawback...

Approximation of stochastic advection diffusion equations with finite difference scheme

In this paper, a high-order and conditionally stable stochastic difference scheme is proposed for the numerical solution of $rm Ithat{o}$ stochastic advection diffusion equation with one dimensional white noise process. We applied a finite difference approximation of fourth-order for discretizing space spatial derivative of this equation. The main properties of deterministic difference schemes,...

Finite Element Methods for Convection Diffusion Equation

This paper deals with the finite element solution of the convection diffusion equation in one and two dimensions. Two main techniques are adopted and compared. The first one includes Petrov-Galerkin based on Lagrangian tensor product elements in conjunction with streamlined upwinding. The second approach represents Bubnov/Petrov-Galerkin schemes based on a new group of exponential elements. It ...

Nonstandard finite difference schemes for differential equations

In this paper, the reorganization of the denominator of the discrete derivative and nonlocal approximation of nonlinear terms are used in the design of nonstandard finite difference schemes (NSFDs). Numerical examples confirming then efficiency of schemes, for some differential equations are provided. In order to illustrate the accuracy of the new NSFDs, the numerical results are compared with ...

A New Implicit Finite Difference Method for Solving Time Fractional Diffusion Equation

In this paper, a time fractional diffusion equation on a finite domain is con- sidered. The time fractional diffusion equation is obtained from the standard diffusion equation by replacing the first order time derivative by a fractional derivative of order 0 < a< 1 (in the Riemann-Liovill or Caputo sence). In equation that we consider the time fractional derivative is in...

A Closed-Form Solution for Two-Dimensional Diffusion Equation Using Crank-Nicolson Finite Difference Method

In this paper a finite difference method for solving 2-dimensional diffusion equation is presented. The method employs Crank-Nicolson scheme to improve finite difference formulation and its convergence and stability. The obtained solution will be a recursive formula in each step of which a system of linear equations should be solved. Given the specific form of obtained matrices, rather than sol...
