... interpolation method for steady problems and a Galerkin projection method for transient problems. Finally, the efficiency and accuracy of the algorithm are examined by three examples. The POD based algorithm can predict both the velocity and temperature fields in the range of design parameters accurately...

... moving boundary heat transfer problem, in two-dimensional structured grids, with specific application to an undirectional solidification problem. Preliminary grids are first generated by an algebraic method, based on a transfinite interpolation method, with subsequent refinement using a partial...

...Arturo Pacheco-Vega; J. Rafael Pacheco; Tamara Rodić We describe the implementation of an interpolation technique, which allows the accurate imposition of the Dirichlet, Neumann, and mixed (Robin) boundary conditions on complex geometries using the immersed-boundary technique on Cartesian grids...

...J. Y. Tan; L. H. Liu; B. X. Li A least-squares radial point interpolation collocation meshless method based on the discrete ordinates equation is developed for solving the radiative transfer in absorbing, emitting, and scattering media, in which compact support radial basis functions augmented...

... unknowns. An efficient set of formulae are derived to compute the RBF interpolation in terms of vector products thus providing a substantial computational savings over traditional meshless methods. Moreover, the approach developed in this paper is applicable to explicit or implicit time marching schemes...
