In this article, we will explore the numerical simulation of the Allen–Cahn equation and provide effective combination methods to efficiently solve it. The Allen–Cahn equation, an equation of mathematical physics, represents a singularly perturbed reaction–diffusion phenomenon that elucidates the phase separation mechanism occurring in multi-component alloy systems. Finding a numerical solution for the Allen–Cahn equation presents a difficult challenge for computational science and engineering researchers. To solve the Allen–Cahn equation, we will use Lie–Trotter’s and Strang’s splitting techniques combined with the radial basis function partition of unity method. We will discretize the problem’s spatial domain using the classical and direct RBF-PU methods. We will also provide suitable theorems for analytical support of the presented numerical methods. We will provide several numerical examples which include examples with exact solutions to check the accuracy and efficiency of the method and examples in the field of phase transition to demonstrate the adaptability, performance, and efficiency of the proposed method.

Heat transfer can be enhanced in various equipment by utilizing fins that have pores in their media. Efforts have been made to solve the porous fins problem by numerical, semianalytical, and analytical methods. In this paper, after the extraction of equations and the expression of boundary conditions, the Sinc collocation method is employed for problem solving the first time. By using the properties of the Sinc collocation method, the nonlinear problem is discritized into a nonlinear system of equations. The results support the accuracy and speed of the solution. The effects of effective physical parameters such as fins porosity, thermal conductivity of fin, Raley's number, and Darcy parameter have been considered in solving the problem. Also, the variations in temperature distribution, efficiency, and performance of fins are investigated. Therefore, changes in the parameters of the solving method indicate the convergence of the problem in the domain of many issues. In general, the results show that the proposed method can be considered as a powerful method for solving different types of fines.

This work is motivated by the frequent occurrence of boundary value problems with various boundary conditions in the modeling of some problems in engineering and physical science. Here we propose a new technique to force the positive definite kernels such as some radial basis functions to satisfy the boundary conditions exactly. It can improve the applications of existing methods based on positive definite kernels and radial basis functions especially the kernel based pseudospectral method for handling the differential equations with more complicated boundary conditions. In the proposed technique some new kernels are constructed using the positive definite kernels in a manner that they satisfy the required conditions. In addition, we prove the positive definiteness of the newly constructed kernel, and also the non-singularity of the collocation matrix is proved under some conditions. The proposed method is verified through the numerical solution of some benchmark problems such as a singularly perturbed steady-state convection–diffusion problem, two and three dimensional Poissons equations with various boundary conditions.
In this paper, we combine the theory of the reproducing kernel Hilbert spaces with the field of collocation methods to solve boundary value problems with a special emphasis on the reproducing property of kernels. Using the reproducing property of the kernels, a new efficient algorithm is proposed to obtain the cardinal functions of a reproducing kernel Hilbert space, which can be applied conveniently for multi-dimensional domains. The differentiation matrices are constructed and also a pointwise error estimate of applying them is derived. In addition, we prove the non-singularity of the collocation matrix. The proposed method is truly meshless, and can be applied conveniently and accurately for high order and also multi-dimensional problems. Numerical results are presented for the several problems such as second- and fifth-order two-point boundary value problems, one- and two-dimensional unsteady Burgers’ equations, and a three-dimensional parabolic partial differential equation. In addition, we compare the numerical results with the best-reported results in the literature to show the high accuracy and efficiency of the proposed method.
