摘要
In this paper, we present a meshfree technique for the numerical solution of the regularized long wave (RLW) equation. This approach is based on a global collocation method using the radial basis functions (RBFs). Different kinds of RBFs are used for this purpose. Accuracy of the new method is tested in terms of L-2 and L-infinity error norms. In case of non-availability of the exact solution, performance of the new method is compared with existing methods. Stability analysis of the method is established. Propagation of single and double solitary waves, wave undulation, and conservation properties of mass, energy and momentum of the RLW equation are discussed. (C) 2008 Elsevier B.V.
