The Adaptive Wavelet Collocation Method and Its Application in Front Simulation


doi: 10.1007/s00376-009-8189-1

  • The adaptive wavelet collocation method (AWCM) is a variable grid technology for solving partial differential equations (PDEs) with high singularities. Based on interpolating wavelets, the AWCM adapts the grid so that a higher resolution is automatically attributed to domain regions with high singularities. Accuracy problems with the AWCM have been reported in the literature, and in this paper problems of efficiency with the AWCM are discussed in detail through a simple one-dimensional (1D) nonlinear advection equation whose analytic solution is easily obtained. A simple and efficient implementation of the AWCM is investigated. Through studying the maximum errors at the moment of frontogenesis of the 1D nonlinear advection equation with different initial values and a comparison with the finite difference method (FDM) on a uniform grid, the AWCM shows good potential for modeling the front efficiently. The AWCM is also applied to a two-dimensional (2D) unbalanced frontogenesis model in its first attempt at numerical simulation of a meteorological front. Some important characteristics about the model are revealed by the new scheme.

Abstract: The adaptive wavelet collocation method (AWCM) is a variable grid technology for solving partial differential equations (PDEs) with high singularities. Based on interpolating wavelets, the AWCM adapts the grid so that a higher resolution is automatically attributed to domain regions with high singularities. Accuracy problems with the AWCM have been reported in the literature, and in this paper problems of efficiency with the AWCM are discussed in detail through a simple one-dimensional (1D) nonlinear advection equation whose analytic solution is easily obtained. A simple and efficient implementation of the AWCM is investigated. Through studying the maximum errors at the moment of frontogenesis of the 1D nonlinear advection equation with different initial values and a comparison with the finite difference method (FDM) on a uniform grid, the AWCM shows good potential for modeling the front efficiently. The AWCM is also applied to a two-dimensional (2D) unbalanced frontogenesis model in its first attempt at numerical simulation of a meteorological front. Some important characteristics about the model are revealed by the new scheme.
