Abstract
In many physical problems, positivity is one of the most prevalent and imperative attribute of diverse mathematical models such as concentration of chemical reactions, population dynamics etc. However, the numerical discretization of dynamical systems that illustrate negative values may lead to meaningless solutions and sometimes to their divergence. The main objective of this work is to develop positivity preserving numerical schemes for the two-dimensional autocatalytic reaction diffusion Brusselator model. Two explicit finite difference (FD) schemes are proposed to solve numerically the two-dimensional Brusselator system. The proposed methods are the non-standard finite difference (NSFD) scheme and the unconditionally positivity preserving scheme. These numerical methods retain the positivity of the solution and the stability of the equilibrium point. Both proposed numerical schemes are compared with the forward Euler explicit FD scheme. The stability and consistency of all schemes are proved analytically and then verified by numerical simulations. © 2020, Editura Academiei Romane. All rights reserved.
