Pseudospectral techniques are known as powerful tools and highly accurate solvers to deal with partial differential equations. In the current work, a local meshless technique in Pseudospectral mode is employed to deal with an interesting and general mathematical model which describes anomalous electrodiffusion of ions in spiny dendrites, the two-dimensional variable-order time fractional nonlinear cable equation. For this purpose, at first step a second-order implicit difference method and a modified second-order weighted and shifted Grünwald difference scheme are used to discretize the appearing integer and variable order fractional time derivatives, respectively. Then a local Pseudospectral meshless method based on the sufficiently smooth compactly supported radial point interpolation basis functions is formulated for solving the semidiscretized problem. The main advantage of the proposed computational technique is that it leads to a sparse and better-conditioned system of algebraic equations. Finally, some numerical experiments are presented to demonstrate and verify the performance and accuracy of the method.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
