A collocation and Cartesian grid methods using new radial basis function to solve class of partial differential equations

In the present paper, a class of partial differential equation represented by Poisson's type problems are solved using a proposed Cartesian grid method and a collocation technique using a new radial basis function. The advantage of using this new radial basis function represented by overcoming singularity from the diagonal elements when thin plate radial basis function is used. The new function is a combination of both multiquadric and thin plate radial basis functions. The new radial basis function contains a control parameter ϵ, that takes one when evaluating the singular elements and equals zero elsewhere. Collocation of the approximate solution of the potential over the governing and boundary condition equations leads to a double linear system of equations. A proposed algebraic procedure is then developed to solve the double system. Examples of Poisson and Helmholtz equations are solved and the present results are compared with the their analytical solutions. A good agreement with analytical results is achieved.
