Finite volume convergence analysis and error estimation for non-linear collisional induced breakage equation

This article focuses on the finite volume method (FVM) as an instrument tool to deal with the non-linear collisional-induced breakage equation (CBE) that arises in the particulate process. Notably, we consider the non-conservative approximation of the CBE. The analysis of weak convergence of the approximated solutions under a feasible stability condition on the time step is investigated for locally bounded breakage and collision kernels. Subsequently, explicit error estimation of the FVM solutions in uniform mesh having the kernels in the class of $W_{loc}^{1,\infty}$ space. It is also shown numerically for the first-order convergent scheme by taking numerical examples.
