We consider the `classical' Boussinesq system in one space dimension and its symmetric analog. These systems model two-way propagation of nonlinear, dispersive long waves of small amplitude on the surface of an ideal fluid in a uniform horizontal channel. We discretize an initial-boundary-value problem for these systems in space using Galerkin-finite element methods and prove error estimates for the resulting semidiscrete problems and also for their fully discrete analogs effected by explicit Runge-Kutta time-stepping procedures. The theoretical orders of convergence obtained are consistent with the results of numerical experiments that are also presented.
