Assignment-3

Write the expression for the Finite Difference Quotient for the convective term of
the Burgers Equation given by

   2
+u =
t x  x2

Use FTCS scheme on a weak conservative form of the equation. Show that the
formulation preserves the conservative property of the continuum (you are
allowed to exclude the diffusive term from the analysis). Also show that the non-
conservative form of the equation does not hold conservative property.

Write the weak conservative form and the strong conservative form of the full 3D
Navier-Stokes Equations for the incompressible flows.
