A reduced high-order compact finite difference scheme based on proper orthogonal decomposition technique for KdV equation

摘要

In this paper, a reduced implicit sixth-order compact finite difference (CFD6) scheme which combines proper orthogonal decomposition (POD) technique and high-order compact finite difference scheme is presented for numerical solution of the Korteweg-de Vries (KdV) equation. High-order compact finite difference scheme is applied to attain high accuracy for KdV equation and the POD technique is used to improve the computational efficiency of the high-order compact finite difference scheme. This method is validated by considering the simulation of five examples, and the numerical results demonstrate that the reduced sixth-order compact finite difference (R-CFD6) scheme can largely improve the computational efficiency without a significant loss in accuracy for solving KdV equation.
