Abstract

This study presents a numerical method for the solution of one type of PDEs equation. In this study, apply the pseudo-spectral successive integration method to approximate the solution of the one-dimensional parabolic equation. This method is based on El-Gendi pseudo-spectral method. Also the Finite Difference Method (FDM) is used as a minor method. The present numerical results are in satisfactory agreement with exact solution.

Keywords:

El-Gendi method, Gauss-Lobatto points, pseudo-spectral successive integration, parabolic equation,
