A numerical scheme for the quantum Boltzmann equation with stiff collision terms

Francis Filbet, Jingwei Hu, Shi Jin (2012)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis - Modélisation Mathématique et Analyse Numérique

Numerically solving the Boltzmann kinetic equations with the small Knudsen number is challenging due to the stiff nonlinear collision terms. A class of asymptotic-preserving schemes was introduced in [F. Filbet and S. Jin,J. Comput. Phys. 229 (2010) 7625–7648] to handle this kind of problems. The idea is to penalize the stiff collision term by a BGK type operator. This method, however, encounters its own difficulty when applied to the quantum Boltzmann equation. To define the quantum Maxwellian...

A ( α )-Stable Linear Multistep Methods for Stiff IVPs in ODEs

R. I. Okuonghae, M. N. O. Ikhile (2011)

Acta Universitatis Palackianae Olomucensis. Facultas Rerum Naturalium. Mathematica

In this paper, a class of A( α )-stable linear multistep formulas for stiff initial value problems (IVPs) in ordinary differential equations (ODEs) is developed. The boundary locus of the methods shows that the schemes are A-stable for step number k ≤ 3 and stiffly stable for k = 4 , 5 and 6 . Some numerical results are reported to illustrate the method.
