To eliminate the numerical oscillations appearing in the first-order symmetric smoothed particle hydrodynamics (FO-SSPH) method for simulating transient heat conduction problems with discontinuous initial distribution, this paper presents a second-order symmetric smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SO-SSPH) method. Numerical properties of both SO-SSPH and FO-SSPH are analyzed, including truncation error, numerical accuracy, convergence rate, and stability. Experimental results show that for transient heat conduction with initial smooth distribution, both FO-SSPH and SO-SSPH can achieve second order convergence rate, which is consistent with the theoretical analysis. However, for one- and two-dimensional conduction with initial discontinuity, the FO-SSPH method suffers from serious unphysical oscillations, which do not disappear over time, and hence it only achieves a first-order convergence rate; while the present SO-SSPH method can avoid unphysical oscillations and has second-order convergence rate. Therefore, the SO-SSPH method is a feasible tool for solving transient heat conduction problems with both smooth and discontinuous distributions, and it is easy to be extended to high dimensional cases.

In this paper, we propose a new weak second-order numerical scheme for solving stochastic differential equations with jumps. By using trapezoidal rule and the integration-by-parts formula of Malliavin calculus, we theoretically prove that the numerical scheme has second-order convergence rate. To demonstrate the effectiveness and the second-order convergence rate, three numerical experiments are given.

In this paper, we propose a verification method for the convergence rates of the numerical solutions for parabolic equations. Specifically, we consider the numerical convergence rates of the heat equation, the Allen–Cahn equation, and the Cahn–Hilliard equation. Convergence test results show that if we refine the spatial and temporal steps at the same time, then we have the second-order convergence rate for the second-order scheme. However, in the case of the first-order in time and the second-order in space scheme, we may have the first-order or the second-order convergence rates depending on starting spatial and temporal step sizes. Therefore, for a rigorous numerical convergence test, we need to perform the spatial and the temporal convergence tests separately.

In this paper, we propose a general and efficient lattice Boltzmann (LB) model for solving the nonlinear thermistor equations, where the nonlinear diffusion and Poisson equations are solved by two LB equations. Through Chapman–Enskog analysis, the nonlinear thermistor equations can be recovered correctly from the present LB model. We then test the model through some numerical simulations, and find that the numerical results are in good agreement with analytical solutions. Additionally, the numerical results also show that the present LB model has a second-order convergence rate in space.
