Abstract

A bivariate spline method is developed to numerically solve second order elliptic partial differential equations (PDE) in non-divergence form. The existence, uniqueness, stability as well as approximation properties of the discretized solution will be established by using the well-known Ladyzhenskaya-Babuska-Brezzi (LBB) condition. Bivariate splines, discontinuous splines with smoothness constraints are used to implement the method. A plenty of computational results based on splines of various degrees are presented to demonstrate the effectiveness and efficiency of our method.
