Description
Summary:This article proposes a family of non-standard methods coupled with compact finite differences to numerically integrate the non-linear Burgers’ equation. Firstly, a family of non-standard methods is derived to deal with a system of ordinary differential equations (ODEs) arising from the semi-discretization of initial-boundary value partial differential equations (PDEs). Further, a method of this family is considered as a special case and coupled with a fourth-order compact finite difference resulting in a combined numerical scheme to solve initial-boundary value PDEs. The combined scheme has first-order accuracy in time and fourth-order accuracy in space. Some basic characteristics of the scheme are analysed and a section concerning the numerical experiments is presented demonstrating the good performance of the combined numerical scheme.
