Title: Long time stability and convergence for fully discrete nonlinear Galerkin method Author: Jie Shen Status: Appl. Anal. 38, 201-229, 1990 Abstract: The aim of this paper is to analyze the fully discrete nonlinear Galerkin methods, which are well suited to the long time integration of dissipative partial differential equations. With the help of several time discrete Gronwall lemmas, we are able to prove the $L^\infty(\R^+,H^\alpha)\;(\alpha=0,1)$ stabilities of the fully discrete nonlinear Galerkin methods under a less restrictive time step constraint than that of the classical Galerkin methods.
