A class of Finite difference Methods for solving inhomogeneous damped wave equations

In this paper, a class of finite difference numerical techniques is presented to solve the second-order linear inhomogeneous damped wave equation. The consistency, stability, and convergences of these numerical schemes are discussed. The results obtained are compared to the exact solution, ordinary explicit, implicit finite difference methods, and the fourth-order compact method (FOCM). The general idea of these methods is developed by using the C0-semigroups operator theory. We also showed that the stability region for the explicit finite difference scheme depends on the damping coefficient.

On the energy decay rates for the 1D damped fractional Klein-Gordon equation

We consider the fractional Klein-Gordon equation in one spatial dimension, subjected to a damping coefficient, which is non-trivial and periodic, or more generally strictly positive on a periodic set. We show that the energy of the solution decays at the polynomial rate $O(t^{-\frac{s}{4-2s}})$ for $0< s<2 $ and at some exponential rate when $s\geq 2$. Our approach is based on the asymptotic theory of $C_0$ semigroups in which one can relate the decay rate of the energy in terms of the resolvent growth of the semigroup generator. The main technical result is a new observability estimate for the fractional Laplacian, which may be of independent interest.
