Abstract:The direct strong-form collocation method with reproducing kernel approximation is introduced to efficiently and effectively solve the natural convection problem within a parallelogrammic enclosure. As the convection behavior in the fluid-saturated porous media involves phase coupling, the resulting system is highly nonlinear in nature. To this end, the local approximation is adopted in conjunction with Newton–Raphson method. Nevertheless, to unveil the performance of the method in the nonlinear analysis, only… Show more

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.
