An Unconditionally Stable Numerical Method for Two-Dimensional Hyperbolic Equations

Abstract

A collocation method based on exponential B-splines for two-dimensional second-order non-linear hyperbolic equations is studied. The initial equation is split into a system of coupled equations, each of which is transformed into a system of ordinary differential equations. The corresponding differential equations are solved by SSP-RK(2,2) method. It is shown that the method under consideration is unconditionally stable. Numerical experiments demonstrate its efficiency and accuracy.
