We formulate new optimal quadratic spline collocation methods for the solution of various elliptic boundary value problems in the unit square. These methods are constructed so that the collocation equations can be solved using a matrix decomposition algorithm. The results of numerical experiments exhibit the expected optimal global accuracy as well as superconvergence phenomena. AMS subject cla...

Collocation methods are popular in providing numerical approximations to complicated governing equations owing to their simplicity in implementation. However, point collocation methods have limitations regarding accuracy and have been modified upon with the application of B-spline approximations. The present study reports the stress and deformation behavior of shear deformable functionally grad...

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...

Collocation methods based on quartic splines are presented for second-order two-point boundary value problems. In order to obtain a uniquely solvable linear system for the degrees of freedom of the quartic spline collocation approximation, in addition to the boundary conditions specified by the problem, extra boundary or near-boundary conditions are introduced. Non-optimal (fourth-order) and op...

The non-local hyperbolic partial differential equations have many applications in sciences and engineering. A collocation finite element approach based on exponential cubic B-spline and quintic B-spline are presented for the numerical solution of the wave equation subject to nonlocal boundary condition. Von Neumann stability analysis is used to analyze the proposed methods. The efficiency, accu...

The aim of the present paper is to present a numerical algorithm for the time-dependent generalized regularized long wave equation with boundary conditions. We semi-discretize the continuous problem by means of the Crank–Nicolson finite difference method in the temporal direction and exponential B-spline collocation method in the spatial direction. The method is shown to be unconditionally stab...

In this work, a computational method for solving nonlinear Volterra-Fredholm-Hammerestein integral equations is proposed. Compactly supported semiorthogonal cubic B-spline wavelets are employed as basis functions then collocation method is utilized to reduce the computation of integral equations to some algebraic system.
