A POD REDUCED-ORDER SPDMFE EXTRAPOLATING ALGORITHM FOR HYPERBOLIC EQUATIONS

In this article, a proper orthogonal decomposition （POD） method is used to study a classical splitting positive definite mixed finite element （SPDMFE） formulation for second- order hyperbolic equations. A POD reduced-order SPDMFE extrapolating algorithm with lower dimensions and sufficiently high accuracy is established for second-order hyperbolic equations. The error estimates between the classical SPDMFE solutions and the reduced-order SPDMFE solutions obtained from the POD reduced-order SPDMFE extrapolating algorithm are provided. The implementation for solving the POD reduced-order SPDMFE extrapolating algorithm is given. Some numerical experiments are presented illustrating that the results of numerical computation are consistent with theoretical conclusions, thus validating that the POD reduced-order SPDMFE extrapolating algorithm is feasible and efficient for solving second-order hyperbolic equations.
