◆ solve()
Solve the tridiagonal system, in a single column, which determines the new values of the ice enthalpy. We are solving a convection-diffusion equation, treating the \( z \) direction implicitly and \( x, y \) directions explicitly. See bombproofenth for the documentation of the treatment of convection terms. The notes below document the way we treat diffusion using a simplified PDE. To discretize \[ \diff{}{z} \left( K(E) \diff{E}{z}\right) = \diff{E}{t} \] at a location \( k \) of the vertical grid, we use centered finite differences in space, backward differences in time, and evaluate \( K(E) \) at staggered-grid locations: \[ \frac{K_{k+\frac12}\frac{E_{k+1} - E_{k}}{\dz} - K_{k-\frac12}\frac{E_{k} - E_{k-1}}{\dz}}{\dz} = \frac{E_{k} - E^{n-1}_{k}}{\dt}, \] where \( E = E^{n} \) for clarity and \( K_{k\pm \frac12} = K(E^{n-1}_{k\pm \frac12}) \), i.e. we linearize this PDE by evaluating \( K(E) \) at the previous time-step. We define \[ R_i = \frac{\dt\, K_i}{\dz^2}, \] and the discretization takes form \[ -R_{k-\frac12} E_{k-1} + \left( 1 + R_{k-\frac12} + R_{k+\frac12} \right) E_{k} - R_{k+\frac12} E_{k+1} = E^{n-1}_{k}. \] In the assembly of the tridiagonal system this corresponds to \begin{align*} L_i &= - \frac12 (R_{i} + R_{i-1}),\\ D_i &= 1 + \frac12 (R_{i} + R_{i-1}) + \frac12 (R_{i} + R_{i+1}),\\ U_i &= - \frac12 (R_{i} + R_{i+1}),\\ b_i &= E^{n-1}_{i}, \end{align*} where \( L_i, D_i, U_i \) are lower-diagonal, diagonal, and upper-diagonal entries corresponding to an equation \( i \) and \( b_i \) is the corresponding right-hand side. (Staggered-grid values are approximated by interpolating from the regular grid). This method is unconditionally stable and has a maximum principle (see [MortonMayers, section 2.11]).
