Parallel calculation of differential quadrature method for the burgers-huxley equation

In this study, the Burgers-Huxley equation with Dirichlet?s boundary conditions is treated by the Differential Quadrature method (DQM). The different types of grid points spacing used in the DQM, which is the equally-spaced and the Chebychev-Gauss-Lobatto grid points have been investigated on their...
