SUMMARYIn this article we study the convergence of the overlapping Schwarz wave form relaxation method for solving the convection-diffusion equation over multi-overlapped subdomains. It is shown that the method converges linearly and superlinearly over long and short time intervals, and the convergence depends on the size of the overlap. Numerical results are presented from solving specific types of model problems to demonstrate the convergence and the role of the size of the overlap.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
