As already mentioned, some works explicitly assume a particular interpolation of the
generalized concentration between two grid points, for instance an exponential variation. No
such assumption was necessary to calculate the fluxes in the presented discretization.
Nonetheless, the resulting interpolation is needed in some cases and will be investigated in
this section.
First, a variable upper boundary
is used in the definite integral
(3.51)
 |
(3.69) |
which evaluates to
 |
(3.70) |
By using eqn. (3.52) the coefficient
is found to be
 |
(3.71) |
A normalization of
to the range
can be achieved by using the substitution
 |
(3.72) |
where
is called growth function [8, p.156]. Inserting
eqn. (3.71) and eqn. (3.72) into
eqn. (3.70) yields
the expression for the growth function
 |
(3.73) |
A graph of this function with
as parameter is depicted in Fig. 3.5.
The curves in the upper-left region are obtained for
and vice
versa.
