Some useful filtering techniques for illposed problems

摘要

Some useful filtering techniques for computing approximate solutions of illposed are presented. Special attention is given to the role of smoothness of the filters and the choice of time-dependent parameters used in these filtering techniques. Smooth filters and proper choice of time-dependent parameters in these filtering techniques allow numerical construction of more accurate approximate solutions of illposed problems. In order to illustrate this and the filtering techniques, a severely illposed fourth-order nonlinear wave equation is numercally solved using a three time-level finite difference scheme. Numerical examples are given showing the merits of the filtering techniques.
