Use the second-order accurate finite difference discretization with uniform 81×41, 161×81 and 321×161
meshes to solve the above Laplace equation. For this purpose
- Implement the fully implicit solution algorithm and use a direct solver (LU factorization) to solve.
- Implement Jacobi, Gauss-Seidel and SOR algorithms and compare their convergence rates with the
iteration numbers. - Plot Error function versus the mesh space ∆x in a log-log scale. Compute the spatial convergence
rate.
The error function is given by
Error = kψi,j − ψanalytick2

[20 points] Why we should not use the following skewed Laplace operator to solve the Laplace equation
in Cartesian coordinates?

Sample Solution
ule and Religion are some of the most important parts of history. Napoleon introduced one of the most important series of civil laws in his rule, and French history, the Napoleonic code, in 1804. Through this, citizenship, family and property were all standardized; Hereditary privilege was completely abolished, and all men were equalized under the law, but Napoleon completely eradicated women’s rights, not even sparing the already established rights women had during the French Revolution. Half the population was stripped of their freedom, something that was the key driving factor of the Revolution. As mentioned previously, Napoleon ruled as a dictator with absolute power, silencing free speech and publication. Furthermore, Napoleon jailed any dissidents and any voting taken place was always manipulated for the desired result, and his dictator control was strengthened through the private police, of which along with rigged elections, kept Napoleon in power. Contrastingly, Napoleon was also the one who gave freedom to the people through overthrowing the directory and mending catholic church relations, allowing the people of France to choose their own religion. Freedom, such an important aspect of life, was being bent and shaped in Napoleon’s hands, giving out and taking back just enough to ensure him power. Considered a master of propaganda, Napoleon manipulated information to exalt himself while holding others accountable for his failures. Liberal ideas were spread throughout Europe by imperial wars and slavery was reinstated to French Colonies. Havoc overtook Europe as all countries feared they would end up like France, with an overthrown monarchy and oppressive ruler. Through his use of Propaganda and Nationalism, Napoleon assembled large armies, invading any country who disagreed with his ideas. Famously worshipped by his troops, Napoleon’s loyalty to them was not returned. During the Egyptian campaign, plague-stricken soldiers were poisoned, and in the Russian campaign, some 30,000 soldiers were abandoned while Napoleon returned a hero>
