The Web-method is a meshless finite element technique which uses weighted extended B-splines (Web-splines) on a tensor product grid as basis functions. It combines the computational advantages of B-splines and standard mesh-based elements. In particular, degree and smoothness can be chosen arbitrarily without substantially increasing the dimension. Hence, accurate approximations are obtained wi...

The problem o f determining the moments and the Fourier transforms o f B-splines with arbitrary knots is considered. There exists a simple connect ion between the moments o f such splines and the so-called extended Stirling numbers o f the second kind which are defined in section 2. Some recurrence relations for the moments o f B-splines with arbitrary knots are given in section 3. In the case ...

this paper describes an approximating solution, based on lagrange interpolation and spline functions, to treat functional integral equations of fredholm type and volterra type. this method can be extended to functional dierential and integro-dierential equations. for showing eciency of the method we give some numerical examples.

A variety of data analysis concerned with genome sequences support the proposal that each living organism owns a genomic signature. Classical approaches to the genomic signature deciphering are based on the counting of oligonucleotides in DNA sequences. Statistical tools as well as graphical representations have been used to associate genomic signatures with oligonucleotides frequencies in the ...

The concept of expo-rational B-spline (ERBS) was introduced in [6] where the ’superproperties’ of ERBS were studied for the first time. In 2006 the first author of the present paper proposed a framework for the generalization of ERBS, the so-called generalized ERBS (GERBS), and considered one important instance of GERBS, the so-called Euler Beta-function B-splines (BFBS) which offered a good tr...

Pseudo-splines are a rich family of functions that allows the user to meet various demands for balancing polynomial reproduction (i.e., approximation power), regularity and support size. Such a family includes, as special members, B-spline functions, universally known for their usefulness in different fields of application. When replacing polynomial reproduction by exponential polynomial reprod...
