Synopsis

This book addresses the stability of numerical difference schemes, particularly when auxiliary techniques like shock fitting are used. Traditional methods like the von Neumann condition, though helpful for interior calculations, struggle to predict stability when boundary conditions apply. The author introduces a revised criterion by Godunov and Ryabenkii to bridge this gap. By examining local normal modes near boundaries and interiors, this criterion provides a more comprehensive stability analysis. Furthermore, it is formalized in terms of the "spectrum of an infinite family of linear operators," a concept introduced by the authors to describe the full range of amplification factors possible in a given scheme. The book explores the theoretical underpinnings of this notion and demonstrates its application to practical fluid dynamics problems involving shock waves. Overall, this book offers valuable insights into the stability of numerical difference schemes, providing a deeper understanding of their behavior and enabling the development of more robust and reliable numerical methods.
