  2. Godunov's scheme - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Godunov's_scheme

    In numerical analysis and computational fluid dynamics, Godunov's scheme is a conservative numerical scheme, suggested by Sergei Godunov in 1959, [1] for solving partial differential equations. One can think of this method as a conservative finite volume method which solves exact, or approximate Riemann problems at each inter-cell boundary. In ...

  3. Courant–Friedrichs–Lewy condition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Courant–Friedrichs–Lewy...

    It arises in the numerical analysis of explicit time integration schemes, when these are used for the numerical solution. As a consequence, the time step must be less than a certain upper bound, given a fixed spatial increment, in many explicit time-marching computer simulations ; otherwise, the simulation produces incorrect or unstable results.

  4. Numerical methods for ordinary differential equations - Wikipedia

    The step size is =. The same illustration for = The midpoint method converges faster than the Euler method, as .. Numerical methods for ordinary differential equations are methods used to find numerical approximations to the solutions of ordinary differential equations (ODEs).

  5. Stencil (numerical analysis) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stencil_(numerical_analysis)

    The Crank–Nicolson stencil for a 1D problem. In mathematics, especially the areas of numerical analysis concentrating on the numerical solution of partial differential equations, a stencil is a geometric arrangement of a nodal group that relate to the point of interest by using a numerical approximation routine.

  6. Shooting method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shooting_method

    In numerical analysis, the shooting method is a method for solving a boundary value problem by reducing it to an initial value problem.It involves finding solutions to the initial value problem for different initial conditions until one finds the solution that also satisfies the boundary conditions of the boundary value problem.

  7. Numerical solution of the convection–diffusion equation

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Numerical_solution_of_the...

    This article describes how to use a computer to calculate an approximate numerical solution of the discretized equation, in a time-dependent situation. In order to be concrete, this article focuses on heat flow, an important example where the convection–diffusion equation applies. However, the same mathematical analysis works equally well to ...
