An efficient and accurate hybrid radial basis function (HRBF) method is proposed to numerically solve the quasi-linear viscous Burgers’ equation. Two different RBFs are combined: an infinite smooth RBF defined by a shape parameter piecewise independent of parameter. This combination formulates family HRBF methods, which then used approximate spatial operator Burgers high-order solver integrate ...

In this paper we apply the newly developed method of particular solutions (MPS) and one-stage method of fundamental solutions (MFS-MPS) for solving fourth-order partial differential equations. We also compare the numerical results of these two methods to the popular Kansa’s method. Numerical results in the 2D and the 3D show that the MFS-MPS outperformed the MPS and Kansa’s method. However, the...

In this paper we investigate patterns of place and stricture assimilation of Argentine Spanish nasals in order to test two competing models of phonological representations of place and stricture features (or tract variables). Electropalatographic (EPG) data from four speakers of Buenos Aires Spanish reveal that nasal assimilation before coronals within words (e.g. in /kanta/, /kansa/, /anʧa/) i...

The strong-form asymmetric kernel-based collocation method, commonly referred to as the Kansa method, is easy to implement and hence is widely used for solving engineering problems and partial differential equations despite the lack of theoretical support. The simple leastsquares (LS) formulation, on the other hand, makes the study of its solvability and convergence rather nontrivial. In this p...

Uskonnollisesta musiikista osana peruskoulun toimintaa on puhuttu runsaasti viime vuosina. Artikkelin lähtökohtana onkin yhteiskunnallisen muutoksen ajama tarve uskonnollisen musiikin roolia perusopetuksessakoskevalle keskustelulle. Musiikinopetuksen historia suomalaisessa koulussa merkittävällä tavalla uskonnollis-nationalistinen, minkä johdosta aikamme koskevan keskustelun juuria etsittävä os...

This paper proves convergence of variations of the unsymmetric kernel-based collocation method introduced by E. Kansa in 1986. Since then, this method has been very successfully used in many applications, though it may theoretically fail in special situations, and though it had no error bound or convergence proof up to now. Thus it is necessary to add assumptions or to make modifications. Our m...

Introduction: Menopause it’s one type of natural physiological process in the women’s life. The quality life on menopausal status women varies significant Studies revealed that may reduce and avoid emotional symptoms menopause by encourage educating themselves when approaching this stage cycle. Design: In study cross sectional survey was conducted. Setting: sample setting is kansa village. Samp...
