Abstract

Coupling the averaged L1 scheme and the Crank–Nicolson scheme for temporal derivatives, we study Maxwell's equations in the Cole–Cole dispersive medium. A rigorous analysis is carried out to show that the proposed scheme is unconditionally stable and has a second-order convergence in time for sufficiently smooth solutions. We avoid using the mathematical induction method, which simplifies the analysis than the existing schemes. A fully discrete scheme with a finite difference method at Yee's grid is proposed. Numerical experiments are carefully designed to illustrate our theoretical analysis.

期刊介绍： The purpose of the journal is to provide a forum for the publication of high quality research and tutorial papers in computational mathematics. In addition to the traditional issues and problems in numerical analysis, the journal also publishes papers describing relevant applications in such fields as physics, fluid dynamics, engineering and other branches of applied science with a computational mathematics component. The journal strives to be flexible in the type of papers it publishes and their format. Equally desirable are: (i) Full papers, which should be complete and relatively self-contained original contributions with an introduction that can be understood by the broad computational mathematics community. Both rigorous and heuristic styles are acceptable. Of particular interest are papers about new areas of research, in which other than strictly mathematical arguments may be important in establishing a basis for further developments. (ii) Tutorial review papers, covering some of the important issues in Numerical Mathematics, Scientific Computing and their Applications. The journal will occasionally publish contributions which are larger than the usual format for regular papers. (iii) Short notes, which present specific new results and techniques in a brief communication.
