Abstract
AbstractThis paper concerns with the implementation of radial basis function pseudospectral (RBF-PS) method for solving Fisher’s equation. Pseudospectral methods are well known for being highly accurate but are limited in terms of geometric flexibility. Radial basis function (RBF) in combination with the pseudospectral method is capable to overcome this limitation. Using RBF, Fisher’s equation is approximated by transforming it into a system of ordinary differential equations (ODEs). An ODE solver is used to solve the resultant ODEs. In this approach, the optimal value of the shape parameter is discussed with the help of leave-one out cross validation strategy which plays an important role in the accuracy of the result. Several examples are given to demonstrate the accuracy and efficiency of the method. RBF-PS method is applied using different types of basis functions and a comparison is done based upon the numerical results. A two-dimensional problem that generalizes the Fisher’s equation is also solved numerically. The obtained numerical results and comparisons confirm that the use of RBF in pseudospectral mode is in good agreement with already known results in the literature.
