Abstract: |
A temporally-piecewise adaptive algorithm is developed to solve 1-D shallow water equations.By expanding variables at a discretized time interval,a nonlinear time and space coupled initial boundary value problem is converted into a series of recursive linear boundary value problems which are tackled by FEM,and no approximation and iteration related with non-linearity are required.An adaptive computation is conducted to maintain a steady computing accuracy for different step sizes.Numerical comparison shows that when the time step is relatively larger,a sufficient computing accuracy can be achieved by the proposed algorithm,while Heun's method and 4-order Runge-Kutta method lead to unreasonable results. |
