  • Abstract

In this paper, by introducing a new flux variable, two decoupled and linearized block-centered finite difference methods are developed and analyzed for the nonlinear symmetric regularized long wave equation, where the two-step backward difference formula and Crank-Nicolson temporal discretization combined with linear extrapolation technique are employed. Under a reasonable time stepsize ratio restriction, i.e., $∆t=o(h^{1/4}),$ second-order convergence for both the primal variable and its flux are rigorously proved on general non-uniform spatial grids. Moreover, based upon the convergence results and inverse estimate, stability of two methods are also demonstrated. Ample numerical experiments are presented to confirm the theoretical analysis.
