- The following numerical scheme:
discretizes the Laplace equation when A = 1 and the wave equation when
A is negative. Assume it is used to solve for un+1j when
u at lower values of n has already been determined. What does the CFL
condition say about this scheme?
Solution
- 2.
- The Lax-Wendroff scheme is
Write this scheme out in terms of mesh point values of u.
Find the PDE which which this scheme is consistent.
Find the normal accuracy of this scheme and any special conditions
under which the scheme would be more accurate.
Solution
