In this paper a numerical technique is proposed for solving the nonlinear generalized Benjamin–Bona–Mahony–Burgers and regularized long-wave equations. Firstly, we obtain a time discrete scheme by approximating time derivative via a finite difference formula, then we use the interpolating element-free Galerkin approach to approximate the spatial derivatives. The element-free Galerkin method uses a weak form of the considered equation that is similar to the finite element method with the difference that in the element-free Galerkin method test and trial functions are moving least squares approximation shape functions. Also, in the element-free Galerkin method, we do not use any triangular, quadrangular or other type of meshes. It is a global method while finite element method is a local one. The element free Galerkin method is not a truly meshless method and for integration employs a background mesh. We prove that the time discrete scheme is unconditionally stable and convergent in time variable using the energy method. We show that convergence order of the time discrete scheme is O(τ). Since the shape functions of moving least squares approximation do not have Kronecker delta property, we cannot implement the essential boundary condition, directly. Thus, the improved moving least squares shape functions that have the mentioned property are employed. An error estimate for the method proposed in the current paper is obtained. Also, the two-dimensional version of both equations on different complex geometries is solved. The aim of this paper is to show that the meshless method based on the weak form is also suitable for the treatment of the nonlinear partial differential equations and to obtain an error bound for the new method. Numerical examples confirm the efficiency of the proposed scheme.
