Abstract
In this paper, the meshless method is employed for the numerical solution of the one-dimensional (1D) convection-diffusion equation based on radical basis functions (RBFs). Coupled with the time discretization and the collocation method, the proposed method is a truly meshless method which requires neither domain nor boundary discretization. The algorithm is very simple so it is very easy to implement. The results of numerical experiments are presented, and are compared with analytical solutions to confirm the good accuracy of the presented scheme
