A study is made for unsteady convective flow of a third grade fluid past an infinite vertical porous plate with uniform suction applied at the plate. The governing non-linear partial differential equations are reduced to a system of non-linear algebraic equations using implicit finite difference schemes and is then solved using damped-Newton method. The effect of the parameters Pr (Prandtl numb...

In this paper, some simple families of explicit two-step finite difference methods for solving the wave equation in two and three spatial dimensions are examined. These schemes depend on several free parameters, and can be associated with so-called interpolated digital waveguide meshes. Special attention is paid to the stability properties of these schemes (in particular the bounds on the space...

Approximate group analysis technique, that is, the technique combining the methodology of group analysis and theory of small perturbations, is applied to finite–difference equations approximating ordinary differential equations. Finite–difference equations are viewed as a system of algebraic equations with a small parameter, introduced through the definitions of finite–difference derivatives. I...

The fully nonlinear and weakly dispersive Green-Naghdi model for shallow water waves of large amplitude is studied. The original model is first recast under a new formulation more suitable for numerical resolution. An hybrid finite volume and finite difference splitting approach is then proposed. The hyperbolic part of the equations is handled with a high-order finite volume scheme allowing for...

In this article we consider a non-standard finite difference method for numerical solution of linear Fredholm integro-differential equations. The non-standard finite difference method and the repeated / composite trapezoidal quadrature method are used to transform the Fredholm integrodifferential equation into a system of non-linear algebraic equations. The numerical experiments on some linear ...

We consider an initial boundary-value problem for the Regularized Long Wave equation. A three level conservative difference scheme is studied. On the first level a two level scheme is used to find the values of the unknown functions which ensures the expression of the initial energies only by the initial data. The obtained algebraic equations are linear with respect to the values of the unknown...

‎We mainly discuss the existence of meromorphic (entire) solutions of‎ ‎certain type of non-linear difference equation of the form‎: ‎$f(z)^m+P(z)f(z+c)^n=Q(z)$‎, ‎which is a supplement of previous‎ ‎results in [K‎. ‎Liu‎, ‎L.

­ We derive the necessary and sufficient condition, for a given Polynomial Recurrence Sequence to converge to a given target rational K. By converge, we mean that the Nth term of the sequence, is equal to K, as N tends to positive infinity. The basic idea of our approach is to construct a univariate polynomial equation in x, whose coefficients correspond to the terms of the Sequence. The approa...
