Abstract

Moving meshes are successfully used in many fields. Here we investigate how a recently proposed approach to combine the Strang splitting method for time integration with pseudospectral spatial discretization by orthogonal polynomials can be extended to include moving meshes. A double representation of a function (by coefficients of polynomial expansion and by values at the mesh nodes associated with a suitable quadrature formula) is an essential part of the numerical integration. Before numerical implementation the original PDE is transformed into a suitable form. The approach is illustrated on the linear heat transfer equation.
