    Application of a lumped Galerkin method to the regularized long wave equation
    (Elsevier Science Inc, 2006) Esen, A; Kutluay, S
    In this paper, a lumped Galerkin method based on quadratic B-spline finite elements is used to find numerical solutions of the one-dimensional regularized long wave (RLW) equation with a variant of initial and boundary conditions. The obtained numerical results show that the present method is a remarkably Successful numerical technique for solving the equation. Results are compared with published numerical solutions.

    A B-spline finite element method for the thermistor problem with the modified electrical conductivity
    (Elsevier Science Inc, 2004) Kutluay, S; Esen, A
    In this paper, approximate steady-state solutions of a one-dimensional positive temperature coefficient thermistor problem with a modified step function electrical conductivity are obtained by using the Galerkin cubic B-spline finite element method. It is shown that the computational results obtained by the method display the correct physical characteristics of the problem, and they are found to be in very good agreement with the exact solution. It is also shown that the numerical solution exhibits the expected convergence to the exact one as the mesh size is refined. Further a Fourier stability analysis of the method is investigated.

    A heat balance integral solution of the thermistor problem with a modified electrical conductivity
    (Elsevier Science Inc, 2006) Kutluay, S; Wood, AS; Esen, A
    A key driver of thermistor response is a thermally-dependent electrical conductivity. Several variants have been proposed in the literature and it is the purpose of this paper to explore the applicability of a bulk model by way of using the heat balance integral approach to predict the response of a positive temperature coefficient thermistor. Conclusions are presented regarding the sensitivity of the response to electrical conductivity. (c) 2005 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.

    An isotherm migration formulation for one-phase Stefan problem with a time dependent Neumann condition
    (Elsevier Science Inc, 2004) Kutluay, S; Esen, A
    In this paper, we present a numerical scheme based on an isotherm migration formulation for one-dimensional, one-phase Stefan problem with a time dependent Neu-mann condition on the fixed boundary and a constant Dirichlet condition on the moving boundary. The numerical results obtained by the present method have been compared with exact one and also those obtained by earlier authors, and are found to be in very good agreement with each other. It is also shown that the numerical solution displays the expected convergence to the exact one as the mesh size is refined. (C) 2003 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.

    A linearized numerical scheme for Burgers-like equations
    (Elsevier Science Inc, 2004) Kutluay, S; Esen, A
    A linearized implicit finite-difference method is presented to find numerical solutions of the one-dimensional Burgers-like equations. The method has been used successfully to obtain accurate numerical solutions even for small values of viscosity term v. Results obtained by the present method using a direct technique for some values of v have been compared with the exact values and are found to be in good agreement with each other.

    A lumped Galerkin method for solving the Burgers equation
    (Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2004) Kutluay, S; Esen, A
    A numerical solution of the one-dimensional Burgers equation is obtained using a lumped Galerkin method with quadratic B-spline finite elements. The scheme is implemented to solve a set of test problems with known exact solutions. Results are compared with published numerical and exact solutions. The proposed scheme performs well. A linear stability analysis shows the scheme to be unconditionally stable.

    Numerical solution of Burgers' equation by quadratic B-spline finite elements
    (Elsevier Science Inc, 2005) Özis, T; Esen, A; Kutluay, S
    In this paper, a Galerkin quadratic B-spline finite element method is used to solve numerically the one-dimensional Burgers' equation reduced by the Hopf-Cole transformation. The performance of the method is tested on two model problems involving moderately Reynolds numbers with known exact solutions. The obtained numerical results show that the method is efficient, robust and reliable for solving Burgers' equation accurately even involving high Reynolds numbers for which the exact solution fails. Computed results are compared with other numerical results in the literature. A stability analysis of the method is also investigated. (c) 2004 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.

    (Elsevier Science Inc, 2005) Kutluay, S; Esen, A
    This paper presents approximate steady-state solutions of a one-dimensional positive temperature coefficient (PTC) thermistor problem, having a step function electrical conductivity that is a highly non-linear function of the temperature, using subdomain collocation and Petrov-Galerkin methods based on spline finite elements. The resulting system of ordinary differential equations is solved by the usual Crank-Nicolson finite difference method using a variant of Thomas algorithm. It is shown that the numerical solutions obtained by the present methods exhibit the correct physical characteristics of the problem and, they are in very good agreement with the exact solution. A Fourier stability analysis of each method is also investigated. (C) 2004 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
