Abstract
In this paper, we propose a new high accuracy discretization based on the ideas given by Chawla and Shivakumar for the solution of two-space dimensional nonlinear hyperbolic partial differential equation of the form utt = A(x, y, t)uxx + B(x, y, t)uyy + g(x, y, t, u, ux, uy, ut), 0 < x, y < 1, t > 0 subject to appropriate initial and Dirichlet boundary conditions. We use only five evaluations of the function g and do not require any fictitious points to discretize the differential equation. The proposed method is directly applicable to wave equation in polar coordinates and when applied to a linear telegraphic hyperbolic equation is shown to be unconditionally stable. Numerical results are provided to illustrate the usefulness of the proposed method.
