Numerical implementation of sealed-end boundary conditions in cable theory.
We show that a frequently used numerical implementation of von Neumann boundary conditions (zero inflowing current) in cable theory is incorrect. Correct implementations are given and it is shown that they yield results in good agreement with known analytical solutions.
