On the Convergence and Stability of Finite Difference Method for Parabolic Partial Differential Equations

Source abstract

In this paper, we verify the convergence and stability of implicit (modified) finite difference scheme. Knowing fully that consistency and stability are very important criteria for convergence, we have prove the stability of the modied implicit scheme using the von Newmann method and also verify the convergence by comparing the numerical solution with the exact solution. The results shows that the schemes converges even as the step size is rened.
