A finite-element approach, based on cubic B-spline collocation, is presented for the numerical solution of Troesch’s problem. The method is used on both a uniform mesh and a piecewise-uniform Shishkin mesh, depending on the magnitude of the eigenvalues. This is due to the existence of a boundary layer at the right endpoint of the domain for relatively large eigenvalues. The problem is also solv...

A numerical method based on septic B-spline function is presented for the solution of linear and nonlinear fifth-order boundary value problems. The method is fourth order convergent. We use the quesilinearization technique to reduce the nonlinear problems to linear problems and use B-spline collocation method, which leads to a seven nonzero bands linear system. Illustrative example is included ...

Three different spline-based approaches for solving Bratu and Bratu-type equations are presented. The classical cubic spline collocation method, an adaptive spline collocation on nonuniform partitions, and an optimal collocation method are derived for solving Bratu-type equations. Numerical examples are presented to verify the efficiency and accuracy of these methods when compared to other nume...

Numerical solutions of one-dimensional heat and advection-diffusion equations are obtained by collocation method based on cubic B-spline. Usual finite difference scheme is used for time and space integrations. Cubic B-spline is applied as interpolation function. The stability analysis of the scheme is examined by the Von Neumann approach. The efficiency of the method is illustrated by some test...

A collocation method based on modified cubic B-spline functions has been developed for the valuation of European, American and barrier options of a single asset. The new approach contains discretization of temporal derivative using finite difference approximation of and approximating the option price with the modified B-spline functions. Stability of this method has been discussed and it is sho...

A B-spline collocation method is developed for solving boundary value problems which arise from the problems of calculus of variations. Some properties of the B-spline procedure required for subsequent development are given, and they are utilized to reduce the solution computation of boundary value problems to some algebraic equations. The method is applied to a few test examples to illustrate ...

A diierential equation of the form Dp(x)Du(x) = f(x; u(x)) is solved by collocation, using a class of spline functions of order 3. A restriction of each spline function to any subinterval of the partition is piecewisely in the kernel of the operator DDp(x)D. A coeecient p(x) may be singular. An algorithm is described by means of which a B-spline basis could be eeciently constructed. Some numeri...

In the present study, we derive a new B-spline technique namely trigonometric B-spline collocation algorithm to solve some initial boundary value problems for the nonlinear Klein-Gordon equation. In order to carry out the time integration with Crank-Nicolson implicit method, the order of the equation is reduced to give a coupled system of nonlinear partial differential equations. The collocatio...
