Use of radial basis functions for solving the second‐order parabolic equation with nonlocal boundary conditions

TLDR
In this paper, the problem of solving the one-dimensional parabolic partial differential equation subject to given initial and nonlocal boundary conditions is considered, and the radial basis functions are used for finding an approximation of the solution of the present problem.
Abstract
Nonlocal mathematical models appear in various problems of physics and engineering. In these models the integral term may appear in the boundary conditions. In this paper the problem of solving the one-dimensional parabolic partial differential equation subject to given initial and nonlocal boundary conditions is considered. These kinds of problems have certainly been one of the fastest growing areas in various application fields. The presence of an integral term in a boundary condition can greatly complicate the application of standard numerical techniques. As a well-known class of meshless methods, the radial basis functions are used for finding an approximation of the solution of the present problem. Numerical examples are given at the end of the paper to compare the efficiency of the radial basis functions with famous finite-difference methods. © 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
