Abstract

Consistent difference approximations to differential operators in vector and tensor analysis are constructed in curvilinear coordinates in a plane by applying the basis operator method. They are obtained as a transformation of basis approximations in a Cartesian coordinate system. For the continuum mechanics equations in Lagrangian variables, this approach yields theoretically justified differential-difference schemes whose conservation laws correspond to the continuous case.
