    Explicit Finite Difference Scheme for the Finite String
    (Addis Ababa University, 2014-08) Amsalu Solomon; Abdi Tadesse (PhD)
    This project provides a practical overview of numerical solutions to the wave equation of finite string using the finite difference method. The second or- der centered differences for time and space is applied to a simple problem involving the one-dimensional wave equation of finite string which lead to an explicit numerical scheme. It also allow the reader to experiment with the consistency, stability and convergency of explicit finite difference scheme for finite string and an example with working Matlab code for the scheme is presented.
