Crank–Nicolson WSGI difference scheme with finite element method for multi-dimensional time-fractional wave problem
- Inner Mongolia University, School of Mathematical Sciences (China)
In this article, a second-order Crank–Nicolson weighted and shifted Grünwald integral (WSGI) time-discrete scheme combined with finite element method is studied for finding the numerical solution of the multi-dimensional time-fractional wave equation. The time-fractional wave equation with Caputo-fractional derivative is transformed into the time-fractional integral equation by integral technique, then the second-order Crank–Nicolson finite element scheme with a time second-order WSGI discrete approximation for fractional integral is formulated. The analysis of stability is made, then a priori error estimate is given by making use of the conversion technique between the WSGI formula and fractional integral. At the end of the article, some numerical examples covering two two-dimensional cases with rectangular element and triangular element and a three-dimensional case with tetrahedral element are shown to test and verify our theoretical results.
