  • Abstract

In this study, Newton linearized finite element methods are presented for solving semi-linear parabolic equations in two- and three-dimensions. The proposed scheme is a one-step, linearized and second-order method in temporal direction, while the usual linearized second-order schemes require at least two starting values. By using a temporal-spatial error splitting argument, the fully discrete scheme is proved to be convergent without time-step restrictions dependent on the spatial mesh size. Numerical examples are given to demonstrate the efficiency of the methods and to confirm the theoretical results.
