Conservative schemes for the symmetric Regularized Long Wave equations

In this paper, we study the Symmetric Regularized Long Wave (SRLW) equations by finite difference method. We design some numerical schemes which preserve the original conservative properties for the equations. The first scheme is two-level and nonlinear-implicit. Existence of its difference solutions are proved by Brouwer fixed point theorem. It is proved by the discrete energy method that the scheme is uniquely solvable, unconditionally stable and second-order convergent for U in L∞ norm, and for N in L2 norm on the basis of the priori estimates. The second scheme is three-level and linear-implicit. Its stability and second-order convergence are proved. Both of the two schemes are conservative so can be used for long time computation. However, they are coupled in computing so need more CPU time. Thus we propose another three-level linear scheme which is not only conservative but also uncoupled in computation, and give the numerical analysis on it. Numerical experiments demonstrate that the schemes are accurate and efficient.
