Using a generalization of Newton's method, a non-linear parabolic equation of the form ut - uxx = g(u), and a non-linear elliptic equation uxx + uyy = eu, are solved numerically. Comparison of these ...

If you want to solve a tricky problem, it often helps to get organized. You might, for example, break the problem into pieces and tackle the easiest pieces first. But this kind of sorting has a cost.

This study introduces a relatively new numerical technique for solving one-dimensional Fisher’s equation. The proposed numerical technique is a simple direct meshless method, which is based on the ...
