The article proposes a nonlocal explicit finite-difference scheme for the numerical solution of a nonlinear, ordinary differential equation with a derivative of a fractional variable order of the Gerasimov–Caputo type. The questions of approximation, convergence, and stability of this scheme are studied. It is shown that the nonlocal finite-difference scheme is conditionally stable and converges to the first order. Using the fractional Riccati equation as an example, the computational accuracy of the numerical method is analyzed. It is shown that with an increase in the nodes of the computational grid, the order of computational accuracy tends to unity, i.e., to the theoretical value of the order of accuracy.

The article discusses different schemes for the numerical solution of the fractional Riccati equation with variable coefficients and variable memory, where the fractional derivative is understood in the sense of Gerasimov-Caputo. For a nonlinear fractional equation, in the general case, theorems of approximation, stability, and convergence of a nonlocal implicit finite difference scheme (IFDS) are proved. For IFDS, it is shown that the scheme converges with the order corresponding to the estimate for approximating the Gerasimov-Caputo fractional operator. The IFDS scheme is solved by the modified Newton’s method (MNM), for which it is shown that the method is locally stable and converges with the first order of accuracy. In the case of the fractional Riccati equation, approximation, stability, and convergence theorems are proved for a nonlocal explicit finite difference scheme (EFDS). It is shown that EFDS conditionally converges with the first order of accuracy. On specific test examples, the computational accuracy of numerical methods was estimated according to Runge’s rule and compared with the exact solution. It is shown that the order of computational accuracy of numerical methods tends to the theoretical order of accuracy with increasing nodes of the computational grid.

Abstract The paper deals with the model of variable-order nonlinear hereditary oscillator based on a numerical finite-difference scheme. Numerical experiments have been carried out to evaluate the stability and convergence of the difference scheme. It is argued that the approximation, stability and convergence are of the first order, while the scheme is stable and converges to the exact solution.

An explicit finite difference scheme for one-dimensional Burgers equation is derived from the lattice Boltzmann method. The system of the lattice Boltzmann equations for the distribution of the fictitious particles is rewritten as a three-level finite difference equation. The scheme is monotonic and satisfies maximum value principle; therefore, the stability is proved. Numerical solutions have been compared with the exact solutions reported in previous studies. TheL2, L∞and Root-Mean-Square (RMS) errors in the solutions show that the scheme is accurate and effective.

A fluid dynamic traffic flow model with a linear velocity-density closure relation is considered. The model reads as a quasi-linear first order hyperbolic partial differential equation (PDE) and in order to incorporate initial and boundary data the PDE is treated as an initial boundary value problem (IBVP). The derivation of a first order explicit finite difference scheme of the IBVP for two-point boundary condition is presented which is analogous to the well known Lax-Friedrichs scheme. The Lax-Friedrichs scheme for our model is not straight-forward to implement and one needs to employ a simultaneous physical constraint and stability condition. Therefore, a mathematical analysis is presented in order to establish the physical constraint and stability condition of the scheme. The finite difference scheme is implemented and the graphical presentation of numerical features of error estimation and rate of convergence is produced. Numerical simulation results verify some well understood qualitative behavior of traffic flow.DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3329/ganit.v31i0.10307GANIT J. Bangladesh Math. Soc.

The dynamic behavior of a distributed parameter valve spring with Coulomb damping has been modeled. Such a spring is described by a nonlinear, nonhomogeneous wave equation. This equation is solved using an explicit finite difference scheme. Some sample results are presented. The results of the finite difference scheme are compared with the results of an analytical solution for zero damping. The two compare very well. The spring is also modeled using an equivalent viscous damping coefficient. The results of this analysis are compared with those of the Coulomb damping analysis.
