In this article, a new unconditionally stable method based on alternating direction implicit (ADI) method for solving nonlinear unsteady 2D parabolic problems is presented. The order of this method in both time and space is 2. For this development, the Peaceman–Rachford ADI method has been modified suitably to take care of nonlinear forcing term of the equation appropriately. The unconditional stability of the method is shown under discrete L2 norm on bounded sets. The method of solution consists of a number of strictly diagonally dominant tridiagonal matrices, which make the method computationally efficient. The accuracy of the proposed method is also demonstrated by some numerical examples.

We consider a general class of parabolic equations of the typewith Dirichlet boundary conditions and with a right-hand side belonging to L1 + Lp′ (W−1, p′). Using the framework of renormalized solutions we prove uniqueness results under appropriate growth conditions and Lipschitz-type conditions on a(u, ∇u), K(u) and H(∇u).
