A B-spline finite element method for solving a class of nonlinear parabolic equations modeling epitaxial thin-film growth with variable coefficient

Abstract In this paper, we propose an efficient B-spline finite element method for a class of fourth order nonlinear differential equations with variable coefficient. For the temporal discretization, we choose the Crank–Nicolson scheme. Boundedness and error estimates are rigorously derived for both...
