Additive schemes for certain operator-differential equations
Unconditionally stable finite difference schemes for the time approximation of first-order operator-differential systems with self-adjoint operators are constructed. Such systems arise in many applied problems, for example, in connection with nonstationary problems for the system of Stokes (Navier-Stokes) equations. Stability conditions in the corresponding Hilbert spaces for two-level weighted operator-difference schemes are obtained. Additive (splitting) schemes are proposed that involve the solution of simple problems at each time step. The results are used to construct splitting schemes with respect to spatial variables for nonstationary Navier-Stokes equations for incompressible fluid. The capabilities of additive schemes are illustrated using a two-dimensional model problem as an example.
