1-dimensional advection

One-dimensional advection

Solve the linear advection equation:

\[q_t + u q_x & = 0.\]

Here q is the density of some conserved quantity and u is the velocity.

The initial condition is a Gaussian and the boundary conditions are periodic. The final solution is identical to the initial data because the wave has crossed the domain exactly once.
