Numerical simulation of Burgers’ equation using cubic B-splines

In this paper, a numerical θ scheme is proposed for solving nonlinear Burgers’ equation. By employing Hopf-Cole transformation, the nonlinear Burgers’ equation is linearized to the linear Heat equation. The resulting Heat equation is further solved by cubic B-splines. The time discretization of line...
