A collocation-Galerkin method is defined for Poisson's equation on the unit 2 square, using tensor products of continuous piecewise polynomials. Optimal L and Hq orders of convergence are established. This procedure requires fewer quadratures than the corresponding Galerkin procedure. Introduction. The collocation-Galerkin method was first introduced by Diaz [2], [3] for the two-point boundary ...

Abstract. A local convergence rate is established for an orthogonal collocation method based on Radau quadrature applied to an unconstrained optimal control problem. If the continuous problem has a sufficiently smooth solution and the Hamiltonian satisfies a strong convexity condition, then the discrete problem possesses a local minimizer in a neighborhood of the continuous solution, and as the...

‎in this paper‎, ‎an approach based on statistical spline model (ssm) and collocation method is proposed to solve volterra-fredholm integral equations‎. ‎the set of collocation nodes is chosen so that the points yield minimal error in the nodal polynomials‎. ‎under some standard assumptions‎, ‎we establish the convergence property of this approach‎. ‎numerical results on some problems are given...

This paper focuses on the use of advanced techniques of text analysis as support for collocation extraction. A hybrid system is presented that combines statistical methods and multilingual parsing for detecting accurate collocational information from English, French, Spanish and Italian corpora. The advantage of relying on full parsing over using a traditional window method (which ignores the s...

In recent years, new and more effective procedures for applying collocation have been published. This article is devoted to present a revision of this subject and complement its developments. From the general theory two broad approaches are derived, which yield the direct and the indirect TH-collocation methods. The former approach had not been published before, and it is a dual of the indirect...

The Fredholm–Volterra integral equation of the second kind with continuous kernels with respect to position and time, is solved numerically, using the Collocation and Galerkin methods. Also the error, in each case, is estimated.

For second harmonic generation in two-dimensional wave-guiding structures composed of segments that are invariant in the longitudinal direction, we develop an efficient numerical method based on the Dirichlet-to-Neumann (DtN) maps of the segments and a marching scheme using two operators and two functions. A Chebyshev collocation method is used to discretize the longitudinal variable for comput...

We propose a modification of collocation methods extending the ‘averaged vector field method’ to high order. These new integrators exactly preserve energy for Hamiltonian systems, are of arbitrarily high order, and fall into the class of B-series integrators. We discuss their symmetry and conjugate-symplecticity, and we compare them to energypreserving composition methods. c © 2010 European Soc...

In this article we use discrete collocation method for solving Fredholm–Volterra integro– differential equations, because these kinds of integral equations are used in applied sciences and engineering such as models of epidemic diffusion, population dynamics, reaction–diffusion in small cells. Also the above integral equations with convolution kernel will be solved by discrete collocation metho...

This article investigates the stability of the collocation method for the Radiosity equation. We introduce graded meshes and trial spaces of piecewise poynomials and prove stability for some modified collocation method. Next we show that graded meshes are necessary, even for linear convergence. The generation of triangulations which allow higher order approximations leads to geometrical problem...
