The old book of Morton can be a starting point, then many modern books of CFD explain the essence of FDM (Anderson, Pletcher, Hirsch, Peric, etc.).
Speaking in general: explicit FD: are based on a Lagrange polynomial, therefore higher order derivatives require larger computational stencil implicit (Compact) FD: are based on the Padè interpolation, you can get high order derivative on compact stencil at the price of solving a linear algebric system. Each term in the PDE is substituted by some FD formula to get a discrete equation that, depending on the PDE, is solved in direct/iterative way. |
