Unveiling the Power of Implicit Six-Point Block Scheme: Advancing numerical approximation of two-dimensional PDEs in physical systems

In the era of computational advancements, harnessing computer algorithms for approximating solutions to differential equations has become indispensable for its unparalleled productivity. The numerical approximation of partial differential equation (PDE) models holds crucial significance in modelling physical systems, driving the necessity for robust methodologies. In this article, we introduce the Implicit Six-Point Block Scheme (ISBS), employing a collocation approach for second-order numerical approximations of ordinary differential equations (ODEs) derived from one or two-dimensional physical systems. The methodology involves transforming the governing PDEs into a fully-fledged system of algebraic ordinary differential equations by employing ISBS to replace spatial derivatives while utilizing a central difference scheme for temporal or y-derivatives. In this report, the convergence properties of ISBS, aligning with the principles of multi-step methods, are rigorously analyzed. The numerical results obtained through ISBS demonstrate excellent agreement with theoretical solutions. Additionally, we compute absolute errors across various problem instances, showcasing the robustness and efficacy of ISBS in practical applications. Furthermore, we present a comprehensive comparative analysis with existing methodologies from recent literature, highlighting the superior performance of ISBS. Our findings are substantiated through illustrative tables and figures, underscoring the transformative potential of ISBS in advancing the numerical approximation of two-dimensional PDEs in physical systems.
