AbstractThis article is intended to fill in the blank of the numerical schemes with second-order convergence accuracy in time for nonlinear Stokes’ first problem for a heated generalized second grade fluid with fractional derivative. A linearized difference scheme is proposed. The time fractional-order derivative is discretized by second-order shifted and weighted Gr¨unwald-Letnikov difference operator. The convergence accuracy in space is improved by performing the average operator. The presented numerical method is unconditionally stable with the global convergence order of in maximum norm, where τ and h are the step sizes in time and space, respectively. Finally, numerical examples are carried out to verify the theoretical results, showing that our scheme is efficient indeed.

A smoothing property in multistep backward difference method for a linear parabolic problem in Hilbert space has been proved, where the operator is selfadjoint, positive definite with compact inverse. By using the solutions computed by a multistep backward difference method for the parabolic problem, we introduce an approximation scheme for time derivative. The nonsmooth data error estimate for the approximation of time derivative has been obtained.
