The Fourier pseudospectral method with a restrain operator for the RLW equation (Q1825614): Difference between revisions

The authors consider the periodic problem of the reduced long wave (RLW) equation. Since the accuracy of numerical solutions of both finite element methods and difference methods is limited even for very smooth solutions of the equation, the authors develop a new Fourier pseudospectral method, modifying filtering techniques of \textit{H.-O. Kreiss} and \textit{J. Oliger} [SIAM J. Numer. Anal. 16, 421--433 (1979; Zbl 0419.65076)], and of \textit{H. Ma} and the first author [J. Comput. Phys. 65, 120--137 (1986; Zbl 0589.65077)]. The authors present numerical evidence that the proposed method has advantages of previous methods, and prove in addition the stability and convergence of the scheme.
