In this paper, the uniform exponential decay of the energy for a fully discretization of the 1-D wave equation has been studied with a punctual interior damping at 𝜉 (𝜉 ∈ (0, 1)). It is known that the usual scheme obtained with a space discretization is not uniformly exponential decaying. In this direction, we have introduced an implicit finite difference scheme that differs from the usual centered one by additional terms of order h 2 and 𝛿t 2 (where h and 𝛿t represent the discretization parameters). In this approach, the fully discrete system was decomposed into two subsystems, namely conservative and nonconservative.According to the literature, it has been noted that under a numerical hypothesis on 𝜉, a uniform observability inequality holds for a conservative system. The uniform exponential decay of the energy for the damped system was proved via the application of the observability inequality.
