CUBIC SPLINE COLLOCATION TECHNIQUE FOR PROBLEMS OF FLUID MECHANICS

This paper presents techniques for the numerical solution of problems in fluid mechanics using cubic spline collocation and some of their recent developments in this field.The main spline relations are presented and incorporated into solution procedures for fluid mechanics equations. The computational algorithm in every case is a tridiagonal matrix system amenable to efficient inversion methods. SADI method and a spline method of fractional steps in each coordinate direction as well as truncation errors and...
