This paper discusses the application of orthogonal collocation on finite elements (OCFE) method using quadratic and cubic B-spline basis functions partial differential equations. Collocation is performed at Gaussian points to obtain an optimal solution, hence name collocation. The used solve various cases Burgers’ equations, including modified equation. KdV–Burgers’ equation considered as a tes...

We develop an exponentially accurate fractional spectral collocation method for solving steady-state and time-dependent fractional PDEs (FPDEs). We first introduce a new family of interpolants, called fractional Lagrange interpolants, which satisfy the Kronecker delta property at collocation points. We perform such a construction following a spectral theory recently developed in [M. Zayernouri ...

Here we propose a new method based on projections for the approximate solution of eigenvalue problems. For an integral operator with a smooth kernel, using an interpolatory projection at Gauss points onto the space of (discontinuous) piecewise polynomials of degree ≤ r−1, we show that the proposed method exhibits an error of the order of 4r for eigenvalue approximation and of the order of 3r fo...

In this work, we study the performance of the sinc-Collocation method for solving Bratu's problem. For different choices of step size, we consider the maximum absolute errors in the solutions at sinc grid points and tabulated in tables. The comparison of the obtained results veri ed that this method converges to the exact solution rapidly and with  

Among fitted-operator methods for solving one-dimensional singular perturbation problems one of the most accurate is the collocation by linear combinations of {1, x, exp (±px)}, known as tension spline collocation. There exist well established results for determining the ‘tension parameter’ p, as well as special collocation points, that provide higher order local and global convergence rates. H...

As we know the approximation solution of seventh order two points boundary value problems based on B-spline of degree eight has only ${cal O}(h^{2})$ accuracy and this approximation is non-optimal. In this work, we obtain an optimal spline collocation method for solving the general nonlinear seventh order two points boundary value problems. The ${cal O}(h^{8})$ convergence analysis, mainly base...

This paper extends the application of the differential quadrature method (DQM) to high order (2 3rd) ordinary differential equations with the boundary conditions specified at multiple points (2 three different points). Explicit weighting coefficients for higher order derivatives have been derived using interpolating trigonometric polynomials. A three-point, linear third-order differential equat...

The aim of this talk is to present highly stable collocation based numerical methods for Volterra Integral Equations (VIEs). As it is well known, a collocation method is based on the idea of approximating the exact solution of a given integral equation with a suitable function belonging to a chosen finite dimensional space, usually a piecewise algebraic polynomial, which satisfies the integral ...

This paper is an extension of previous work where we laid the foundation for the kernel-based collocation solution of stochastic partial differential equations (SPDEs), but dealt only with the simpler problem of right-hand-side Gaussian noises. In the present paper we show that kernel-based collocation methods can be used to approximate the solutions of high-dimensional elliptic partial differe...

Recently there has been a growing interest in designing efficient methods for the solution of ordinary/partial differential equations with random inputs. To this end, stochastic Galerkin methods appear to be superior to other nonsampling methods and, in many cases, to several sampling methods. However, when the governing equations take complicated forms, numerical implementations of stochastic ...
