A numerical method for solution of the two-dimensional sine-Gordon equation using the radial basis functions. (English) Zbl 1155.65379

Summary: The nonlinear sine-Gordon equation arises in various problems in science and engineering. In this paper, we propose a numerical scheme to solve the two-dimensional damped/undamped sine-Gordon equation. The proposed scheme is based on using collocation points and approximating the solution employing the thin plate splines (TPS) radial basis function (RBF). The new scheme works in a similar fashion as finite difference methods. Numerical results are obtained for various cases involving line and ring solitons.
