| Abstract: | We construct finite difference schemes for a particular class of one‐space dimension, nonlinear reaction‐diffusion PDEs. The use of nonstandard finite difference methods and the imposition of a positivity condition constrain the schemes to be explicit and allow the determination of functional relations between the space and time step‐sizes. The general procedure is illustrated by applying it to several important model systems of PDEs © 1999 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. Numer Methods Partial Differential Eq 15: 201–214, 1999 |
