Moving mesh method with local time step refinement for blow-up problems. (English) Zbl 1130.65092
Summary: The dynamical moving mesh method is merged with the local time stepping technique and the new method is applied for blow-up problems. It has some benefit in approximating an accurate blow-up time by starting at any positive initial time ($$t_{0}> 0)$$.
Our numerical experiment shows that without applying the local time stepping method, the wrong blow-up time will be obtained, if the equation integrates from $$t_{0}> 0$$.
