In this procedure, the backward and forward difference scheme in two subdomains and a coarse-mesh second-order central difference scheme at the middle interface are used. Maximum norm error estimate for the procedure is derived.

We use a coarse-mesh second-order central difference scheme at the middle line mesh points and derive the error estimate. Then we discuss the iterative method based on the domain decomposition for our scheme and derive the bounds for the rates of convergence. Finally we present some numerical experiments to support our analysis.展开更多

文摘A finite difference method is introduced to solve the forward-backward heat equation in two space dimensions. In this procedure, the backward and forward difference scheme in two subdomains and a coarse-mesh second-order central difference scheme at the middle interface are used. Maximum norm error estimate for the procedure is derived. Then an iterative method based on domain decomposition is presented for the numerical scheme and the convergence of the given method is established. Then numerical experiments are presented to support the theoretical analysis.
