Analysis of a moving collocation method for one-dimensional partial differential equations (Q424316)

The authors emphasize the similarities between the moving collocation method, the standard collocation method and the finite volume method. It is shown that the moving collocation method inherits the ease implementation and the high-order convergence rate from the traditional collocation method and the mass conservation from the finite volume method. For general linear two-point boundary value problems the authors obtain the convergence of the moving collocation method in the \(L^\infty\) norm. Several numerical results are presented to support the theoretical findings.
