Abstract

Finite difference schemes are considered for a nonlinear $Ca^{2+}$ diffusion equations with stationary and mobile buffers. The scheme inherits mass conservation as for the classical solution. Stability and $L^{\infty}$ error estimates of approximate solutions for the corresponding schemes are obtained. using the extended Lax-Richtmyer equivalence theorem.
