Barycentric rational method for solving biharmonic equation by depression of order.

Two‐dimensional biharmonic boundary‐value problems are considered by the linear barycentric rational method, the unknown function was approximated by the barycentric rational function. For the biharmonic equation, we change the biharmonic equation into the two Poisson equations by depression of order. The linear equations of discrete the biharmonic equation was changed into matrix form. For the basis of barycentric rational function, we present the convergence rate of linear barycentric rational method for biharmonic equation by depression of order. At last, several numerical examples are provided to validate the theoretical analysis. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
