Abstract

This article describes a meshless method for the numerical solution of the seventh-order nonlinear one-dimensional non-stationary Korteweg-de Vries equation. The meshless scheme is based on the use of the collocation method and radial basis functions. In this approach, the solution is approximated by radial basis functions, and the collocation method is used to compute the unknown coefficients. The meshless method uses the following radial basis functions: Gaussian, inverse quadratic, multiquadric, inverse multiquadric and Wu’s compactly supported radial basis function. Time discretization of the nonlinear one-dimensional non-stationary Korteweg-de Vries equation is obtained using the θ-scheme. This meshless method has an advantage over traditional numerical methods, such as the finite difference method and the finite element method, because it doesn’t require constructing an interpolation grid inside the domain of the boundary-value problem. In this meshless scheme the domain of a boundary-value problem is a set of uniformly or arbitrarily distributed nodes to which the basic functions are “tied”. The paper presents the results of the numerical solutions of two benchmark problems which were obtained using this meshless approach. The graphs of the analytical and numerical solutions for benchmark problems were obtained. Accuracy of the method is assessed in terms of the average relative error, the average absolute error, and the maximum error. Numerical experiments demonstrate high accuracy and robustness of the method for solving the seventh-order nonlinear one-dimensional non-stationary Korteweg-de Vries equation.
