Abstract

Numerical approximations by pseudospectral method are obtained for the damped Boussinesq equation which is a modification of the good Boussinesq equation. The consistency and stability of the method are obtained using the extended Lax-Richtmyer equivalence theorem, which imply the convergence of the method. We obtain error estimates of O(h$^{s}$ + k$^2$) for a fully discrete pseudospectral method.
