In this paper, we present a new pressure-correction projection scheme for solving the time-dependent Navier-Stokes equations, which is based on the Crank-Nicolson extrapolation method in the time discretization. Error estimates for the velocity and the pressure of semidiscretized scheme are derived by interpreting the projection scheme as second-order time discretization of a perturbed system w...

Abstract. This article is devoted to the study of the finite element approximation for a nonlocal nonlinear parabolic problem. Using a linearised Crank-Nicolson Galerkin finite element method for a nonlinear reaction-diffusion equation, we establish the convergence and error bound for the fully discrete scheme. Moreover, important results on exponential decay and vanishing of the solutions in f...

In this paper, the collocation method is performed with quintic B-spline functions on a uniform mesh to obtain the numerical solutions of Fisher’s equation. Crank-Nicolson method is used for time discretization. Von Neumann stability analysis shows that the given method is conditionally stable. In order to observe the effects of reaction and diffusion, four test problems related to pulse distur...

A new numerical model of the lattice Boltzmann method utilizing least-squares finite element in space and Crank-Nicolson method in time is presented. The new method is able to solve problem domains that contain complex or irregular geometric boundaries by using finite-element method's geometric flexibility and numerical stability, while employing efficient and accurate least-squares optimizatio...

Almost all the difficulties that arise in the numerical solution of Maxwell’s equations are due to material interfaces. In case that their geometrical features are much smaller than a typical wave length, one would like to use small space steps with large time steps. The first time stepping method which combines a very low cost per time step with unconditional stability was the ADI-FDTD method ...

In this work we generate the numerical solutions of the Burgers’ equation by applying the Crank-Nicolson method directly to the Burgers’ equation, i.e., we do not use Hopf-Cole transformation to reduce Burgers’ equation into the linear heat equation. Absolute error of the present method is compared to the absolute error of the two existing methods for two test problems. The method is also analy...

We analyze the spatially semidiscrete piecewise linear finite element method for a nonlocal parabolic equation resulting from thermistor problem. Our approach is based on the properties of the elliptic projection defined by the bilinear form associated with the variational formulation of the finite element method. We assume minimal regularity of the exact solution that yields optimal order erro...

We interpret the Cayley transform of linear ( niteor in nitedimensional) state space systems as a numerical integration scheme of Crank Nicolson type. The scheme is known as Tustin's method in the engineering literature, and it has the following important Hamiltonian integrator property: if Tustin's method is applied to a conservative (continuous time) linear system, then the resulting (discret...

A finite difference method which is second-order accurate in time and in space is proposed for two-dimensional fractional percolation equations. Using the Fourier transform, a general approximation for the mixed fractional derivatives is analyzed. An approach based on the classical Crank-Nicolson scheme combined with the Richardson extrapolation is used to obtain temporally and spatially second...
