摘要
A novel fully discrete Crank–Nicolson finite element method, which is obtained by finite difference in time and finite element in space, is presented to approximate the fractional Cable equation. Compared to the L1-formula for discretizing fractional derivatives at time tn+1, the proposed approximate scheme is directly obtained at time tn+12, in which some new coefficients (k+12)1-α-(k-12)1-α instead of (k+ 1) 1-α- k1-α are derived. Based on the new approximate formula, the stability and error estimate are analyzed in detail and the optimal convergence rate O(τmin{1+α1,1+α2}+hr+1) is obtained. Numerical examples in one-dimensional and two-dimensional spaces are shown to illustrate the effectiveness and feasibility of the studied algorithm. © 2015, Korean Society for Computational and Applied Mathematics.
