A fully discrete computational technique involving the implicit finite difference technique and cubic Hermite splines is proposed to solve the non-linear conformable damped Burgers’ equation with variable coefficients numerically. The proposed scheme is capable of solving the equation having singularity at t=0. The space direction is discretized using cubic Hermite splines, whereas the time direction is discretized using an implicit finite difference scheme. The convergence, stability and error estimates of the proposed scheme are discussed in detail to prove the efficiency of the technique. The convergence of the proposed scheme is found to be of order h2 in space and order (Δt)α in the time direction. The efficiency of the proposed scheme is verified by calculating error norms in the Eucledian and supremum sense. The proposed technique is applied on conformable damped Burgers’ equation with different initial and boundary conditions and the results are presented as tables and graphs. Comparison with results already in the literature also validates the application of the proposed technique.
