The operational matrices for Elliptic Partial Differential Equations with mixed boundary conditions

Abstract The purpose of this research is to implement the orthogonal polynomials associated with operational matrices to get the approximate solutions for solving two-dimensional elliptic partial differential equations (E-PDEs) with mixed boundary conditions. The orthogonal polynomials are based on the Standard polynomial ( x i ), Legendre, Chebyshev, Bernoulli, Boubaker, and Genocchi polynomials. This study focuses on constructing quick and precise analytic approximations using a simple, elegant, and potent technique based on an orthogonal polynomial representation of the solution as a double power series. Consequently, a linear partial differential equation is transformed into a linear algebraic system which is solved by the Mathematica®12. Approximate solutions can be found if the answers are polynomials in and of itself. Three applications involving well-known linear problems Laplace, Poisson, and Helmholtz equations have been solved by using the proposed methods, and a comparison of the approaches has been provided. Furthermore, the computation of the error norm L ∞ has been done to show the accuracy of the suggested approaches. The results clearly demonstrate how precise, efficient, and dependable the proposed methods are in obtaining rough solutions to the problem. Bernoulli was one of the best methods in most examples.
