- mathematicsPartial discretization
For a large class of fully nonlinear parabolic equations, which include gradient flows for energy functionals that depend on the solution gradient, the semidiscretization in time by implicit Runge-Kutta methods such as the Radau IIA methods of arbitrary order is studied.
