in this article, we apply the multiquadric radial basis function (rbf) interpo-lation method for nding the numerical approximation of traveling wave solu-tions of the kawahara equation. the scheme is based on the crank-nicolsonformulation for space derivative. the performance of the method is shown innumerical examples.

The potential function of Lippincott and Schroeder for linear hydrogen bond has been re-examined and extended to nonlinear hydrogen bond. The parameters originally introduced to the potential function by Lippincott and Schroeder have been determined from the structural parameters such as 0.. .Odistance 0-H bond distance, H.. .O distance and HOO angle. Thevalidity of harmonic oscillator appr...

the gravity recovery and climate experiment (grace), twin satellites launched in march 2002, are making detailed measurements of the earth's gravity field. it will yield discoveries about gravity and the earth's natural systems. different sensors and instruments have been placed in the grace satellites to fulfill the primary scientific objective of the mission in mapping the earth’s g...

Interpolation is a form of function approximation in which the approximating function (interpolant) and the underlying function must agree at a finite number of points. In some cases additional restrictions may be imposed on the interpolant. For example its first derivative evaluated at a finite number of points may have to agree with that of the underlying function. Other examples include addi...
