A new moving mesh method is introduced for solving time dependent partial diierential equations (PDEs) in divergence form. The method uses a cell-averaging cubic Hermite collocation discretization for the physical PDEs and a three point nite diierence discretization for the PDE which determines the moving mesh. Numerical results are presented for a selection of diicult benchmark problems, inclu...

the importance and howness of language learning/ acquisition has been a great concern for decades. there are many factors that play important roles in this regard. this research compared the performance of native persian and english elementary students to see if there is any significant difference between the two groups and which type of collocation they performed better within the groups. for ...

in this work the collocation method based on quartic b-spline is developed and applied to two-point boundary value problem in ordinary diferential equations. the error analysis and convergence of presented method is discussed. the method illustrated by two test examples which verify that the presented method is applicable and considerable accurate.

Fast direct methods are presented for the solution of linear systems arising in highorder, tensor-product orthogonal spline collocation applied to separable, second order, linear, elliptic partial di erential equations on rectangles. The methods, which are based on a matrix decomposition approach, involve the solution of a generalized eigenvalue problem corresponding to the orthogonal spline co...

Arbitrary recurrent word combinations (collocations) are a key in language learning. However, even advanced students have difficulties when using them. Efficient collocation aiding tools would be of great help. Still, existing “collocation checkers” still struggle to offer corrections to miscollocations. They attempt to correct without making any distinction between the different types of error...

The aim of this talk is to present highly stable collocation based numerical methods for Volterra Integral Equations (VIEs). As it is well known, a collocation method is based on the idea of approximating the exact solution of a given integral equation with a suitable function belonging to a chosen finite dimensional space, usually a piecewise algebraic polynomial, which satisfies the integral ...

The commonly used graded piecewise polynomial collocation method for weakly singular Volterra integral equations may cause serious round-off error problems due to its use of extremely nonuniform partitions and the sensitivity of such time-dependent equations to round-off errors. The singularity preserving (nonpolynomial) collocation method is known to have only local convergence. To overcome th...

In this paper, I introduce the DICI, an electronic dictionary of Italian collocations designed to support the acquisition of the collocational competence in learners of Italian as a second or foreign language. I briefly describe the composition of the reference Italian corpus from which the collocations are extracted, and the methodology of extraction and filtering of candidate collocations. It...
