Popis: | In this paper, we generalize the direct method of lines for elliptic problems in star-shaped domains. We assume that the boundary of the star-shaped domain is a closed Lipschitz curve that can be parameterized by the angular variable, so that an appropriate transformation of coordinates can be introduced. Then the elliptic problem is reduced to a variational–differential problem on a semi-infinite strip in the new coordinates. We discretize the reduced problem with respect to the angular variable and obtain a semi-discrete approximation. Then a direct method is adopted to solve the semi-discrete problem analytically. Finally, the optimal error estimate of the semi-discrete approximation is given and several numerical examples are presented to show that our method is feasible and effective for a wide range of elliptic problems. |
