چکیده

In this follow up paper to our previous study in [2], we present a new technique to compute the solution of PDEs with the multiquadric based RBF finite difference method (RBF-FD) using an optimal node dependent variable value of the shape parameter. This optimal value is chosen so that, to leading order, the local approximation error of the RBF-FD formulas is zero. In our previous paper [2] we considered the case of an optimal (constant) value of the shape parameter for all the nodes. Our new results show that, if one allows the shape parameter to be different at each grid point of the domain, one may obtain very significant accuracy improvements with a simple and inexpensive numerical technique. We analyze the same examples studied in [2], both with structured and unstructured grids, and compare our new results with those obtained previously. We also find that, if there are a significant number of nodes for which no optimal value of the shape parameter exists, then the improvement in accuracy deteriorates significantly. In those cases, we use generalized multiquadrics as RBFs and choose the exponent of the multiquadric at each node to assure the existence of an optimal variable shape parameter.

Determining optimal value of the shape parameter $c$ in RBF for unequal distances topographical points by Cross-Validation algorithm

Several radial basis function based methods contain a free shape parameter which has  a crucial role in the accuracy of the methods. Performance evaluation of this parameter in different  functions with various data has always been a topic of study. In the present paper, we consider studying the methods which determine an optimal value for the shape parameter in interpolations of radial basis  ...

Scattered Node Mehrstellenverfahren-type Formulas Generated from Radial Basis Functions

In standard equispaced finite difference (FD) formulas, symmetries can make the order of accuracy relatively high compared to the number of nodes in the FD stencil. With scattered nodes, such symmetries are no longer available. Thus, the number of nodes in the stencils can be relatively large compared to the resulting accuracy. The generalization of mehrstellenverfahren (compact) FD (CFD) formu...

Scattered node compact finite difference-type formulas generated from radial basis functions

In standard equispaced finite difference (FD) formulas, symmetries can make the order of accuracy relatively high compared to the number of nodes in the FD stencil. With scattered nodes, such symmetries are no longer available. The generalization of compact FD formulas that we propose for scattered nodes and radial basis functions (RBFs) achieves the goal of still keeping the number of stencil ...

RBF-FD formulas and convergence properties

The local RBF is becoming increasingly popular as an alternative to the global version that suffers from ill-conditioning. In this paper, we study analytically the convergence behavior of the local RBF method as a function of the number of nodes employed in the scheme, the nodal distance, and the shape parameter. We derive exact formulas for the first and second derivatives in one dimension, an...

Adaptive Shape Parameter (ASP) Technique for Local Radial Basis Functions (RBFs) and Their Application for Solution of Navier Strokes Equations

The concept of adaptive shape parameters (ASP) has been presented for solution of incompressible Navier Strokes equations using mesh-free local Radial Basis Functions (RBF). The aim is to avoid ill-conditioning of coefficient matrices of RBF weights and inaccuracies in RBF interpolation resulting from non-optimized shape of basis functions for the cases where data points (or nodes) are not dist...
