  2. Riemann solver - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Riemann_solver

    Generally speaking, Riemann solvers are specific methods for computing the numerical flux across a discontinuity in the Riemann problem. [1] They form an important part of high-resolution schemes; typically the right and left states for the Riemann problem are calculated using some form of nonlinear reconstruction, such as a flux limiter or a WENO method, and then used as the input for the ...

  3. Numerical solution of the convection–diffusion equation

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

    In this method, the basic shape function is modified to obtain the upwinding effect. This method is an extension of Runge–Kutta discontinuous for a convection-diffusion equation. For time-dependent equations, a different kind of approach is followed. The finite difference scheme has an equivalent in the finite element method (Galerkin method ...

    is the Diffusion coefficient [2] and is the Source term. [3] A portion of the two dimensional grid used for Discretization is shown below: Graph of 2 dimensional plot. In addition to the east (E) and west (W) neighbors, a general grid node P, now also has north (N) and south (S) neighbors.

  5. 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.

  6. Direct multiple shooting method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/.../Direct_multiple_shooting_method

    Thus, solutions of the boundary value problem correspond to solutions of the following system of N equations: (;,) = (;,) = (;,) =. The central N−2 equations are the matching conditions, and the first and last equations are the conditions y(t a) = y a and y(t b) = y b from the boundary value problem. The multiple shooting method solves the ...

  7. Stiff equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stiff_equation

    For some problems this is not the case. In order for a numerical method to give a reliable solution to the differential system sometimes the step size is required to be at an unacceptably small level in a region where the solution curve is very smooth. The phenomenon is known as stiffness. In some cases there may be two different problems with ...

  8. 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.

  9. Christofides algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christofides_algorithm

    The union of the tree and the matching is a cycle, with no possible shortcuts, and with weight approximately 3n/2. However, the optimal solution uses the edges of weight 1 + ε together with two weight-1 edges incident to the endpoints of the path, and has total weight (1 + ε)(n − 2) + 2, close to n for small values of ε. Hence we obtain an ...
