Abstract

In this paper, we extended the method of approximate particular solutions (MAPS) using trigonometric basis functions to solve two-dimensional elliptic partial differential equations (PDEs) with variable-coefficients and the Cauchy–Navier equations. The new approach is based on the closed-form particular solutions for second-order differential operators with constant coefficients. For the Cauchy–Navier equations, a reformulation of the equations is required so that the particular solutions for the new differential operators are available. Five numerical examples are provided to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.
