Abstract
In this study, a reliable and efficient local discontinuous Galerkin scheme for numerically solving the classical long wave system is proposed. This scheme approximates the temporal derivatives using the explicit strong-stability-preserving higher-order Runge-Kutta method, while the space derivatives are approximated using the local discontinuous Galerkin method, yielding an ordinary differential equation system. Numerical examples for various test problems are presented to offer a comprehensive understanding of the accuracy and reliability of the proposed method. The results obtained, which confirm the sub-optimal order of accuracy, are displayed in multiple tables. Additionally, several two-dimensional and three-dimensional graphical depictions of the problem have been provided to illustrate the behavior of the solution.
