numeric pdsolve condition

Hello,

Since I was working in Matlab with Galerkin method which implies periodic boundary conditions I was wondering how to implement this in maple.

I tried this:

restart;

pde2 := diff(u(x, t), t)+3*(diff(u(x, t)^2, x))+diff(u(x, t),x$3) = 0

IBC := {u(0, t) = u(2, t), u(x, 0) = sech(50*(x-1/2))^2+2*sech(30*(x-1))^2, (D[1](u))(0, t) = (D[1](u))(2, t), (D[2](u))(0, t) = (D[2](u))(2, t)}

pds := pdsolve(pde2, IBC, numeric, time = t, range = 0 .. 2)

But it's telling me: 

Error, (in pdsolve/numeric/process_IBCs) initial/boundary conditions can only contain derivatives which are normal to the boundary, got (D[2](u))(0, t)

So what's wrong?
