A meshless method for numerical solution of the coupled Schrödinger-KdV equations (Q644872)

This paper deals with a meshless method using radial basis function (RBF) collocation scheme for the coupled Schrödinger-Korteveg-de Vries (KdV) equations. Instead of traditional mesh oriented methods (as the finite volume method or the finite elemen method), this method requires only a scattered set of nodes in the domain. The authors present this approach and derive a priori error estimates in the \(L^\infty\) norm. Moreover, some stability results are discussed. Finally, numerical experiments are presented, and are compared with the finite element method, finite difference Crank-Nicolson scheme and the analytical solution to confirm the good accuracy of the presented scheme.
