AB: The intermediate boundary conditions for the solution
of linear, one-dimensional
reaction-diffusion equations have been determined analytically
for the case that the reaction and
diffusion operators are solved once each in each time
step. These boundary conditions have been
used to solve systems of nonlinear, one-dimensional reaction-diffusion
equations by means of
linearized theta -methods and time-linearized techniques
which are based on the linearization of
the nonlinear algebraic and differential, respectively,
equations of the reaction operator; both
techniques provide analytical solutions to the reaction
operator although in discrete and
continuous forms, respectively. Since the linearization
of reaction operators may result in dense
Jacobian matrices, diagonally and triangularly linearized
techniques which uncouple or couple in a
sequential manner, respectively, the dependent variables
are proposed. It is shown that the
accuracy of time-linearized methods is higher than that
of linearized theta -techniques, whereas the
accuracy of both linearization methods deteriorates as
the coupling between dependent variables is
weakened.

AB: Partially-linearized, approximate factorization methods
for multidimensional, nonlinear
reaction-diffusion problems are presented. These methods
first discretize the time derivatives and
linearize the equations, and then factorize the multidimensional
operators into a sequence of
one-dimensional ones. Depending on how the Jacobian matrix
is approximated, fully coupled,
sequentially coupled or uncoupled, linear, one-dimensional
problems are obtained. It is shown
that the approximate errors of the linearized techniques
presented are nearly the same, whereas
their accuracy depends on the approximation to the Jacobian
matrix.

method

AB: The authors refers to Montgomery and Fleeter (see
ibid., vol.6, p.59-77 (1996)) who
employed the finite-analytic method of Chen et al. (1980)
to study steady, two-dimensional,
inviscid, compressible, subsonic flow in a nozzle. The
authors show that, contrary to the statement
made by Montgomery and Fleeter, their boundary conditions
at the computational cell's
boundaries are not constructed from the particular solution
to one of their equations. The authors
deduce from a simple non-linear second-order ordinary
differential equation that the finite or
locally analytic method of Chen et al. (1980) only yields
continuous but not differentiable
solutions. They suggest a finite-analytic method which
provides continuous and differentiable
solutions.

AB: A method for the solution of initial and boundary
value problems in nonlinear, ordinary
differential equations, and for one-dimensional, partial
differential equations which provides
C/sup 1/ solutions is presented. The method is based on
the linearization of the differential
equation in intervals which contain only two grid points
and provides three-point, nonstandard
finite difference equations for the nodal amplitudes.
The method is applied to steady
reaction-diffusion equations, two-point, singularly perturbed
boundary value problems and the
steady Burgers equation, and compared with standard finite
difference and finite element
formulations. For one-dimensional, partial differential
equations, the temporal derivatives are first
discretized, and the resulting ordinary differential equation
accounts for both the temporal and
spatial stiffnesses and is solved by means of piecewise
linearization. Since the linearization
includes a Jacobian matrix, it may be easily employed
to refine the mesh where steep gradients
occur.

AB: Piecewise-linearized methods for the solution of initial-value
problems in ordinary differential
equations are developed by approximating the right-hand-sides
of the equations by means of a
Taylor polynomial of degree one. The resulting approximation
can be integrated analytically to
obtain the solution in each interval and yields the exact
solution for linear problems. Three
adaptive methods based on the norm of the Jacobian matrix,
maintaining constant the value of the
approximation errors incurred by the linearization of
the right-hand sides of the ordinary
differential equations, and Richardson's extrapolation
are developed. Numerical experiments with
some nonstiff, first- and second-order, ordinary differential
equations, indicate that the accuracy
of piecewise-linearized methods is, in general, superior
to those of the explicit, modified,
second-order accurate Euler method and the implicit trapezoidal
rule, but lower than that of the
explicit, fourth-order accurate Runge-Kutta technique.
It is also shown that piecewise-linearized
methods do not exhibit computational (i.e., spurious)
modes for the relaxation oscillations of the
van der Pol oscillator, and, for those systems of equations
which satisfy certain conservation
principles, conserve more accurately the invariants than
the trapezoidal rule. An error bound for
piecewise-linearized methods is provided for ordinary
differential equations whose
right-hand-sides satisfy certain Lipschitz conditions.

AB: Second-order accurate in space, partially-linearized,
triangular and diagonal Theta -methods
for reaction-diffusion equations, which employ either
a standard or a delta formulation, are
developed and applied to both the study of a system of
one-dimensional, reaction-diffusion
equations with algebraic nonlinear reaction terms and
the propagation of a one-dimensional,
confined, laminar flame. These methods require the solution
of tridiagonal matrices for each
dependent variable, and either uncouple or sequentially
couple the dependent variables at each
time step depending on whether they are diagonally- or
triangularly-linearized techniques,
respectively. Partially-linearized, diagonal methods yield
larger errors than partially-linearized,
triangular techniques, and the accuracy of the latter
depends on the time step, standard or delta
formulation, implicitness parameter and the order in which
the equations are solved. Fully- and
partially-linearized, operator-splitting methods for reaction-diffusion
equations are also developed.
The latter provide explicit expressions for the solution
of the reaction operator.

equations: two-point boundary value
problems

AB: Piecewise-linearized methods for the solution of two-point
boundary value problems in
ordinary differential equations are presented. These problems
are approximated by piecewise
linear ones which have analytical solutions and reduced
to finding the slope of the solution at the
left boundary so that the boundary conditions at the right
end of the interval are satisfied. This
results in a rather complex system of non-linear algebraic
equations which may be reduced to a
single non-linear equation whose unknown is the slope
of the solution at the left boundary of the
interval and whose solution may be obtained by means of
the Newton-Raphson method. This is
equivalent to solving the boundary value problem as an
initial value one using the
piecewise-linearized technique and a shooting method.
It is shown that for problems characterized
by a linear operator a technique based on the superposition
principle and the piecewise-linearized
method may be employed. For these problems the accuracy
of piecewise-linearized methods is of
second order. It is also shown that for linear problems
the accuracy of the piecewise-linearized
method is superior to that of fourth-order-accurate techniques.
For the linear singular perturbation
problems considered in this paper the accuracy of global
piecewise linearization is higher than that
of finite difference and finite element methods. For non-linear
problems the accuracy of
piecewise-linearized methods is in most cases lower than
that of fourth-order methods but
comparable with that of second-order techniques owing
to the linearization of the non-linear
terms.

AB: Fully-linearized Theta -methods for autonomous and
non-autonomous, ordinary differential
equations are derived by approximating the non-linear
terms by means of the first-degree
polynomials which result from Taylor`s series expansions.
These methods are implicit but result in
explicit solutions, A-stable, consistent and convergent;
however, they may be very demanding in
terms of both computer time and storage because the matrix
to be inverted is, in general, dense.
The accuracy of fully-linearized Theta -methods is comparable
to that of the standard, implicit,
iterative Theta -methods, and deteriorates as the value
of Theta is decreased from Theta =0.5, for
which both Theta and fully-linearized Theta -methods are
second-order accurate.
Partially-linearized Theta -methods based on the partial
linearization of non-linear terms have also
been developed. These methods result in diagonal or triangular
matrices which may be easily
solved by substitution. Their accuracy, however, is lower
than that of fully-linearized Theta
-methods.
