Abstract :
In this paper, we propose a new high-accuracy method based on nonpolynomial
spline for the numerical solution to two-dimensional elliptic partial dierential
equations. Using a non-polynomial spline approximation in x-direction and central
dierence in y-direction, we obtain a new nine-point compact nite-dierence formulation.
A four-point Group Explicit (GE) iterative scheme with an acceleration tool is then applied
to the obtained system. The formulation procedure is presented in detail. The eciency
of the proposed method is then illustrated by some test problems. The numerical results
are found to be in good agreement with the exact solutions.
