In this work, we analyse new robust spline approximation methods for mth order boundary value problems described by nonlinear ordinary diierential and integro-diierential equations with m linear boundary conditions. Our main aim is to introduce a cost-eeective alternative to the highly successful orthogonal col-location method, and to prove stability and convergence properties similar to the or...

Sinc-collocation scheme is one of the new techniques used in solving numerical problems involving integral equations. This method has been shown to be a powerful numerical tool for finding fast and accurate solutions. So, in this paper, some properties of the Sinc-collocation method required for our subsequent development are given and are utilized to reduce integral equation of the first kind ...

In this paper, attempt is made to solve a few problems using the Polynomial Point Collocation Method (PPCM), the Radial Point Collocation Method (RPCM), Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH), and the Finite Point Method (FPM). A few observations on the accuracy of these methods are recorded. All the simulations in this paper are three dimensional linear elastostatic simulations, without account...

A framework for the construction of stable spectral methods on arbitrary domains with unstructured grids is presented. Although most of the developments are of a general nature, an emphasis is placed on schemes for the solution of partial differential equations defined on the tetrahedron. In the first part the question of well-behaved multivariate polynomial interpolation on the tetrahedron is ...

BACKGROUND Infectious disease outbreaks in communities can be controlled by early detection and effective prevention measures. Assessing the relative importance of each individual community member with respect to these two processes requires detailed knowledge about the underlying social contact network on which the disease can spread. However, mapping social contact networks is typically too r...
