Abstract

In this study, a Petrov-Galerkin finite element method, in which the element shape functions are cubic and weight functions are quadratic B-splines, is implemented to find the numerical solution of the Korteweg-de Vries-Burgers'(KdVB) equation. Accuracy of the presented method is demonstrated by three test problems. The obtained numerical results are compared with results given in the literature and shown graphically.

Özet
