Abstract

Based on a mixed Galerkin approximation, we construct the fully discrete approximations of $U_y$ as well as U to a single-phase quasilinear Stefan problem with a forcing term in non-divergence form. We prove the optimal convergence of approximation to the solution {U, S} and the superconvergence of approximation to $U_y$.
