  2. Lax–Wendroff method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lax–Wendroff_method

    What follows is the Richtmyer two-step Lax–Wendroff method. The first step in the Richtmyer two-step Lax–Wendroff method calculates values for f(u(x, t)) at half time steps, t n + 1/2 and half grid points, x i + 1/2.

  3. Flux limiter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flux_limiter

    Admissible limiter region for second-order TVD schemes. Unless indicated to the contrary, the above limiter functions are second order TVD. This means that they are designed such that they pass through a certain region of the solution, known as the TVD region, in order to guarantee stability of the scheme.

  4. Crank–Nicolson method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crank–Nicolson_method

    The Crank–Nicolson stencil for a 1D problem. The Crank–Nicolson method is based on the trapezoidal rule, giving second-order convergence in time.For linear equations, the trapezoidal rule is equivalent to the implicit midpoint method [citation needed] —the simplest example of a Gauss–Legendre implicit Runge–Kutta method—which also has the property of being a geometric integrator.

  5. Beam and Warming scheme - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beam_and_Warming_scheme

    In numerical mathematics, Beam and Warming scheme or Beam–Warming implicit scheme introduced in 1978 by Richard M. Beam and R. F. Warming, [1] [2] is a second order accurate implicit scheme, mainly used for solving non-linear hyperbolic equations. It is not used much nowadays.

  6. Nusselt number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nusselt_number

    The Nusselt number is the ratio of total heat transfer (convection + conduction) to conductive heat transfer across a boundary. The convection and conduction heat flows are parallel to each other and to the surface normal of the boundary surface, and are all perpendicular to the mean fluid flow in the simple case.

  7. Symplectic integrator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Symplectic_integrator

    The Verlet method is the second-order integrator with = and coefficients =, =, = =. Since c 1 = 0 {\displaystyle c_{1}=0} , the algorithm above is symmetric in time. There are 3 steps to the algorithm, and step 1 and 3 are exactly the same, so the positive time version can be used for negative time.

  8. MUSCL scheme - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MUSCL_scheme

    Thus, the accuracy of a TVD discretization degrades to first order at local extrema, but tends to second order over smooth parts of the domain. The algorithm is straight forward to implement. Once a suitable scheme for F i + 1 / 2 ∗ {\displaystyle F_{i+1/2}^{*}} has been chosen, such as the Kurganov and Tadmor scheme (see below), the solution ...

  9. Upwind scheme - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Upwind_scheme

    In computational physics, the term advection scheme refers to a class of numerical discretization methods for solving hyperbolic partial differential equations.In the so-called upwind schemes typically, the so-called upstream variables are used to calculate the derivatives in a flow field.
