Abstract

The combined approach of linearisation and finite difference method is used to solve the improved Boussinesq equation. A three-level iterative scheme having second order accuracy and constant coefficients matrix is devised and used in discussing the dynamics of waves having various initial wave packets. The results are in good agreement with the available results.
