finite difference method MacCormack method 2011-05-11 http://identifiers.org/biosimulators/jsim http://identifiers.org/doi/10.2514/2.6901 AZ In computational fluid dynamics, the MacCormack method is a widely used discretization scheme for the numerical solution of hyperbolic partial differential equations. This second-order finite difference method [http://identifiers.org/biomodels.kisao/KISAO_0000307] is introduced by R. W. MacCormack in 1969. Crank-Nicolson method
