Characterizing and minimizing the operator split error for Fisher's equation
نویسندگان
چکیده
Operator splitting (OS) is a popular and convenient technique used to numerically solve reactive transport problems such as Fisher’s equation. Although OS has been widely used to solve Fisher’s equation, no characterization of the innate OS error has been presented. Here the exact characteristics of the OS error for travelling wave solutions of Fisher’s equation are revealed and explored. The analysis shows that the OS error behaves differently to previously studied linear problems by smoothing or steepening the wave front depending on the sequential order of splitting. Further analysis confirms that the OS error is reduced by implementing an alternating OS scheme. © 2005 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

Applying fuzzy wavelet like operator to the numerical solution of linear fuzzy Fredholm integral equations and error analysis
In this paper, we propose a successive approximation method based on fuzzy wavelet like operator to approximate the solution of linear fuzzy Fredholm integral equations of the second kind with arbitrary kernels. We give the convergence conditions and an error estimate. Also, we investigate the numerical stability of the computed values with respect to small perturbations in the first iteration....
متن کاملPositive-Definite and Monotonic Limiters for Unrestricted-Time-Step Transport Schemes
General positive-definite and monotonic limiters are described for use with unrestricted-Courant-number flux-form transport schemes. These limiters are tested using a time-split multidimensional transport scheme. The importance of minimizing the splitting errors associated with the time-split operator and of the consistency between the transport scheme and the discrete continuity equation is de...

A non-traditional operator split (OS) scheme for the solution of the advection-diffusion-reaction (ADR) equation is proposed. The scheme is implemented with the recently published central scheme [A.
