Abstract: | In this paper, Galerkin finite methods for two-dimensional regularized long wave and symmetric regularized long wave equation are studied. The discretization in space is by Galerkin finite element method and in time is based on linearized backward Euler formula and extrapolated Crank–Nicolson scheme. Existence and uniqueness of the numerical solutions have been shown by Brouwer fixed point theorem. The error estimates of linearlized Crank–Nicolson method for RLW and SRLW equations are also presented. Numerical experiments, including the error norms and conservation variables, verify the efficiency and accuracy of the proposed numerical schemes. |
