On the convergence of a conservative numerical scheme for the usual Rosenau-RLW equation

摘要

In this paper, we study the initial-boundary value problem of the usual Rosenau-RLW equation by finite difference method. We design a conservative numerical scheme which preserves the original conservative properties for the equation. The scheme is three-level and linear-implicit. The unique solvability of numerical solutions has been shown. Priori estimate and second order convergence of the finite difference approximate solutions are discussed by discrete energy method. Numerical results demonstrate that the scheme is efficient and accurate.
