On the evaluation of Poisson equation with dual interpolation boundary face method

This paper presents a new implementation of the dual reciprocity method (DRM) in connection with the dual interpolation boundary face method (DiBFM) for the Poisson equation. In DiBFM, the nodes of an element are categorized into two groups: (i) source nodes (ii) virtual nodes. First layer interpolation is used to interpolate the physical variables, while boundary integrals are evaluated on the source nodes only. Moreover, moving least squares (MLS) interpolation is used and provides additional constraints equations to establish the relationship between source and virtual nodes. Additionally, augmented thin plate spline (ATPS) is used to better interpolate the non-homogeneous term. Finally, it is claimed that the proposed method is much superior to the DRM for Poisson type equation with different geometries, especially for complex geometry. Numerical examples are evaluated and compared with the DRM to ensure the superiority of the proposed method. •A novel implementation of DRM for Poisson equation with dual interpolation boundary face method.•The integrand quantities are calculated from curves rather than from elements, which eliminate the geometric error.•Augmented thin plate spline is used to better interpolate the non-homogeneous term.•The proposed method is more accurate and efficient than the DRM, especially for problems with complex geometries.
