This paper presents a new approach of meshless local B-spline based finite difference (FD) method for transient 2D heat conduction problems with nonhomogenous and time-dependent heat sources. In this method, any governing equations are discretized by B-spline approximation which is implemented as a generalized FD technique using local B-spline collocation scheme. The key aspect of the method is that any derivative is stated as neighboring nodal values based on B-spline interpolants. The set of neighboring nodes is allowed to be randomly distributed. This allows enhanced flexibility to be obtained in the simulation. The method is truly meshless as no mesh connectivity is required for field variable approximation or integration. Galerkin implicit scheme is employed for time integration. Several transient 2D heat conduction problems with nonuniform heat sources in arbitrary complex geometries are examined to show the efficacy of the method. Comparison of the simulation results with solutions from other numerical methods in the literature is given. Good agreement with reference numerical methods is obtained. The method is shown to be simple and accurate for the time-dependent problems.

In this paper, a new meshless local B-spline basis functions-finite difference (FD) method is presented for two-dimensional heat conduction problem with spatially varying heat generation. In the method, governing equations are discretized by B-spline approximation in the spirit of FD technique using local B-spline collocation. The key aspect of the method is that any derivative at a point or node is stated as neighbouring nodal values based on the B-spline interpolants. Compared with mesh-based method such as FEM the method is simple and efficient to program. In addition, as the method poses the Kronecker delta property, the imposition of boundary conditions is also easy and straightforward. Moreover, it poses no difficulties in dealing with arbitrary complex domains. Heat conduction problem in complex geometry is presented to demonstrate the accuracy and efficiency of the present method.

This paper is the second part of a paper-series in which we create and examine new numerical methods for solving the heat conduction equation. Now we present numerical test results of the new algorithms which have been constructed using the known, but non-conventional UPFD and odd-even hopscotch methods in Part 1. Here all studied systems have one space dimension and the physical properties of the heat conducting media are uniform. We also examine different possibilities of treating heat sources.

In this study the Kuramoto-Sivashinsky (KS) equation has been solved using the collocation method, based on the exponential cubic B-spline approximation together with the Crank Nicolson. KS equation is fully integrated into a linearized algebraic equations. The results of the proposed method are compared with both numerical and analytical results by studying two text problems. It is found that the simulating results are in good agreement with both exact and existing numerical solutions.

An exact analytical solution is obtained for the problem of three-dimensional transient heat conduction in the multilayered sphere. The sphere has multiple layers in the radial direction and, in each layer, time-dependent and spatially nonuniform volumetric internal heat sources are considered. To obtain the temperature distribution, the eigenfunction expansion method is used. An arbitrary combination of homogenous boundary condition of the first or second kind can be applied in the angular and azimuthal directions. Nevertheless, solution is valid for nonhomogeneous boundary conditions of the third kind (convection) in the radial direction. A case study problem for the three-layer quarter-spherical region is solved and the results are discussed.

AbstractIn this work, we introduce a new construct to the cubic B-spline collocation method in the three and four-dimensions. The cubic B-splines method format is displayed in one, two, three, and four-dimensions format. These constructions are of utmost importance in solving differential equations in their various dimensions, which have applications in many fields of science. The efficiency and accuracy of the proposed methods are demonstrated by its application to a few test problems in two, three, and four dimensions. Also, comparing the exact solutions and with the results obtained by using other numerical methods available in the literature as much as possible.
