Abstract

A finite-difference method is used to transform the initial/boundary-value problem associated with the nonlinear Kadomtsev-Petviashvili equation, into an explicit scheme. The numerical method is developed by replacing the time and space derivatives by central-difference approximants. The resulting finite-difference method is analysed for local truncation error, stability and convergence. The results of a number of numerical experiments are given.
