In this paper, we develop a new sixth-order finite difference central weighted essentially non-oscillatory (WENO) scheme with Z-type nonlinear weights for degenerate parabolic equations. The centered polynomial is introduced the WENO reconstruction to avoid negative linear weights. We choose based on $$L^2$$ -norm smoothness indicators, yielding less computational cost. It also confirmed that p...

‎In the present paper‎, ‎some spectral properties of boundary value problems of Sturm-Liouville type on two disjoint bounded intervals with transmission boundary conditions are investigated‎. ‎Uniqueness theorems for the solution of the inverse problem are proved‎, ‎then we study the reconstructing of the coefficients of the Sturm-Liouville problem by the spectrtal mappings method.

Recently, Wazwaz [Appl. Math. Comput. 118 (2001) 311–325] applied the Adomian s decomposition method to solve analytically the solution of sixth-order boundary value problems. The same problem is discussed via the variational principle, which reveals to be much more simpler and much more efficient. 2002 Elsevier Science Inc. All rights reserved.

A three-point nonuniform combined compact difference (NCCD) scheme with sixth-order accuracy is proposed for numerical models. The NCCD scheme is a generalization of the previously proposed combined compact difference (CCD) scheme with a global Hermitan polynomial spline and has major improved features such as error and computational (CPU) time reduction. For nonperiodic boundaries, additional ...
