The modification of a knot of a B-spline curve of order k generates a family of B-spline curves. We show that an envelope of this family is a B-spline curve defined by the same control polygon, and its order is k −m, where m is the multiplicity of the modified knot. Moreover, their arbitrary order derivatives differ only in a multiplier.  2003 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.

In this paper a new digital audio watermarking algorithm is proposed based on B-spline approximation. The algorithm takes the advantage of non-uniform B-spline wavelet, namely, the number of low-frequency components can be arbitrarily selected, so, it is very flexible. Meanwhile, it avoids the complex calculations of non-uniform B-spline wavelets. The simulation experiments show that this algor...

This article aims to propose an efficient Fibonacci wavelet-based collocation method for solving the nonlinear reaction-diffusion equation of Fisher-type. The underlying numerical scheme starts by formulating operational matrices integration corresponding wavelets. Besides, we study error analysis and convergence theorem proposed technique. Subsequently, a set algebraic equations are formed giv...

A diierential equation of the form Dp(x)Du(x) = f(x; u(x)) is solved by collocation, using a class of spline functions of order 3. A restriction of each spline function to any subinterval of the partition is piecewisely in the kernel of the operator DDp(x)D. A coeecient p(x) may be singular. An algorithm is described by means of which a B-spline basis could be eeciently constructed. Some numeri...

in this paper, we use a third degree b-spline function to construct an approximate solution forthird order linear and nonlinear boundary value problems coupled with the least square method. severalexamples are given to illustrate the efficiency of the proposed technique.

The application of collocation methods using spline basis functions to solve differential model equations has been in use for a few decades. However, the application of spline collocation to the solution of the nonlinear, coupled, partial differential equations (in primitive variables) that define the motion of fluids has only recently received much attention. The issues that affect the effecti...
