Abstract
Abstract In the article, two linearized finite difference schemes are proposed and analyzed for the Benjamin–Bona–Mahony–Burgers (BBMB) equation. For the construction of the two‐level scheme, the nonlinear term is linearized via averaging k and k + 1 floor, we prove unique solvability and convergence of numerical solutions in detail with the convergence order O ( τ 2 + h 2 ) . For the three‐level linearized scheme, the extrapolation technique is utilized to linearize the nonlinear term based on ψ function. We obtain the conservation, boundedness, unique solvability and convergence of numerical solutions with the convergence order O ( τ 2 + h 2 ) at length. Furthermore, extending our work to the BBMB equation with the nonlinear source term is considered and a Newton linearized method is inserted to deal with it. The applicability and accuracy of both schemes are demonstrated by numerical experiments.
