Abstract

The present study aims to introduce a solution for parabolic integro-differential equations arising in heat conduction in materials with memory, which naturally occur in many applications. Two Radial basis functions (RBFs) collocation schemes are employed for solving this equation. The first method tested is an unsymmetric method, and the second one, which appears to be more efficient, is a symmetric one. The convergence of these two schemes is accelerated, as we use the cartesian nodes as the center nodes.
