Cubic quasi-interpolation spline collocation method for solving convection-diffusion equations

摘要

In this paper, we use a cubic spline collocation method to solve a two dimensional convection-diffusion equation. More precisely, we approximate first and second order partial derivatives by those of cubic spline quasi-interpolants to produce a system of first order ordinary differential equations. The resulting system can be solved using MATLAB's ode solver. Error estimates of quasi-interpolants which are used are given with full discussion. Furthermore, numerical examples are presented to show the validity of our methods. (C) 2018 International Association for Mathematics and Computers in Simulation (IMACS). Published by Elsevier B.V.
