β¦ Synopsis
We propose a symbolic-numerical method for the stability analysis of diflerence initial-value problems approximating initial-value problems for the systems of partial differential equations of hyperbolic or parabolic type. The basis of the method is constituted by the Fourier method. It is proposed to use the catastrophe theory for an analysis of the manifold of characteristic equation zeros. This equation is derived automatically by symbolic computations which also enables us to automatically generate some FORTRAN subroutines needed for the analysis within the framework of the catastrophe theory. Examples of the application of the developed method are presented. In particular, the necessary stability condition has been obtained for the two-cycle MacCormack scheme of 1969 .
