A high order, block finite difference, error inhibiting scheme for the transport equation

Abstract

We propose a block finite difference, error inhibiting scheme that is fourth-order accurate for short to moderate times and has a six-order convergence rate for long times. This scheme outperforms the standard fourth-order Finite Difference scheme. We also demonstrate that the proposed scheme is a particular type of nodal-based Discontinuous Galerkin method with $p=1$.
