By applying finite difference formula to time discretization and the cubic B-splines for spatial variable, a numerical method for solving the inverse system of Burgers equations is presented. Also, the convergence analysis and stability for this problem are investigated and the order of convergence is obtained. By using two test problems, the accuracy of presented method is verified. Additional...

A pressure-based implicit procedure to solve the Euler and Navier-Stokes equations on a nonorthogonal mesh with collocated finite volume formulation is described. The boundedness criteria for this procedure are determined from Normalized Variable diagram (NVD) scheme.The procedure incorporates the ε−k eddy-viscosity turbulence model. The algorithm is tested for inviscid and turbulent transonic ...

in this paper, we consider a particular class of integral equations of the fourth kind and show that tractability and differentiability index of the given system are 3. tractability and dierentiability index are introduced based on the-smoothing property of a volterra integral operator and index reduction procedure, respectively. using the notion of index, we give sucient conditions for the...

We develop a theoretical tool to examine the properties of numerical schemes for advection equations. To magnify the defects of a scheme we consider a convection-reaction equation 0021-9 doi:10. q Th * Co E-m ut þ ðjujq=qÞx 1⁄4 u; u; x 2 R; t 2 Rþ; q > 1: It is shown that, if a numerical scheme for the advection part is performed with a splitting method, the intrinsic properties of the scheme a...

In this paper, we give the uniqueness on the identification of unknown source locations in two-dimensional heat equations from scattered measurements. Based on the assumption that the unknown source function is a sum of some known functions, we prove that one measurement point is sufficient to identify the number of sources and three measurement points are sufficient to determine all unknown so...

This paper is devoted to comparing numerical schemes for a differential equation with convection and fourth-order diffusion. Our model equation is ut þ ðu uÞx 1⁄4 ðuuxxxÞx, which arises in the context of thin film flow. First we employ implicit schemes and treat both convection and diffusion terms implicitly. Then the convection terms are treated with wellknown explicit schemes, namely Godunov,...

ABSTRACT A program is developed that includes two hydrodynamic models, a 2D depth-averaged (2DH) and a Quasi-3D (Q3D), and a pollutant transport model that uses a 1 order upwinding and a 3 order QUICKEST numerical schemes. Several tests were performed in two test basins in order to examine the performance of the above models. The Q3D model is successfully applied to Lake Ontario, using a 4-km-s...

A new scheme referred to as the multi-moment (MM) scheme is explored to develop a more reliable Vlasov code from the viewpoint of numerical properties. The MM scheme is based on the Eulerian approach, where spatial derivatives are evaluated by interpolation functions locally constructed by not only grid values but also 0th-, 1st-, and 2nd-order moment values between grids, which largely increas...
