On the exact solutions and numerical simulation of the non-homogeneous
Burgers equations
Abstract
In this paper, special attention is paid to developing a general method
to calculate an exact solution for nonhomogeneous Burgers equations in
one dimensional space. For this purpose, generalized Hopf-Cole method is
using. Then, the model is transformed into the linear heat equation and
separable nonlinear differential equation which allows us to calculate
an exact solution. We also present exact solutions for differents
models. Furthermore, to consolidate the theoretical calculation, we make
numerical analysis, considering a finite element discretization in space
on a viscous flow model. Then, we use a special tretment on the
nonlinear term. Finally, we add a numerical simulation using a finite
element code FreeFem++.
