A new reproducing kernel Hilbert space method for solving nonlinear fourth-order boundary value problems

This paper presents a new reproducing kernel Hilbert space method for solving nonlinear fourth-order boundary value problems. It is a relatively new analytical technique. The solution obtained by using the method takes the form of a convergent series with easily computable components. This paper will present a numerical comparison between our method and other methods for solving an open fourth-order boundary value problem presented by Scott and Watts. The method is also applied to a nonlinear fourth-order boundary value problem. The numerical results demonstrate that the new method is quite accurate and efficient for fourth-order boundary value problems.     

A method of solving a nonlinear boundary value problem with a parameter for a loaded differential equation

A nonlinear loaded differential equation with a parameter on a finite interval is studied. The interval is partitioned by the load points, at which the values of the solution to the equation are set as additional parameters. A nonlinear boundary value problem for the considered equation is reduced to a nonlinear multipoint boundary value problem for the system of nonlinear ordinary differential equations with parameters. For fixed parameters, we obtain the Cauchy problems for ordinary differential equations on the subintervals. Substituting the values of the solutions to these problems into the boundary condition and continuity conditions at the partition points, we compose a system of nonlinear algebraic equations in parameters. A method of solving the boundary value problem with a parameter is proposed. The method is based on finding the solution to the system of nonlinear algebraic equations composed.

A parametrization method for solving nonlinear two-point boundary value problems

A sharper version of the local Hadamard theorem on the solvability of nonlinear equations is proved. Additional parameters are introduced, and a two-parameter family of algorithms for solving nonlinear two-point boundary value problems is proposed. Conditions for the convergence of these algorithms are given in terms of the initial data. Using the right-hand side of the system of differential equations and the boundary conditions, equations are constructed from which initial approximations to the unknown parameters can be found. A criterion is established for the existence of an isolated solution to a nonlinear two-point boundary value problem. This solution is shown to be a continuous function of the data specifying the problem.     

On Numerov's method for a class of strongly nonlinear two-point boundary value problems

The purpose of this paper is to give a numerical treatment for a class of strongly nonlinear two-point boundary value problems. The problems are discretized by fourth-order Numerov's method, and a linear monotone iterative algorithm is presented to compute the solutions of the resulting discrete problems. All processes avoid constructing explicitly an inverse function as is often needed in the known treatments. Consequently, the full potential of Numerov's method for strongly nonlinear two-point boundary value problems is realized. Some applications and numerical results are given to demonstrate the high efficiency of the approach.     

The Lie-group shooting method for solving nonlinear singularly perturbed boundary value problems

A new computational method for solving the second-order nonlinear singularly perturbed boundary value problems (SPBVPs) is provided in this paper. In order to overcome a highly singular behavior very near to the boundary as being not easy to treat by numerical method, we adopt a coordinate transformation from an x-domain to a t-domain via a rescaling technique, which can reduce the singularity within the boundary layer. Then, we construct a Lie-group shooting method (LGSM) to search a missing initial condition through the finding of a suitable value of a parameter r ∈ [0, 1]. Moreover, we can derive a closed-form formula to express the initial condition in terms of r, which can be determined properly by an accurate matching to the right-boundary condition. Numerical examples are examined, showing that the present approach is highly efficient and accurate.

Region for multiple solutions have also been determined.

We demonstrate clearly that the method is accurate, fast and has a reasonable order of convergence.

Radial basis functions method for solving of a non-local boundary value problem with Neumann’s boundary conditions

In this paper, the problem of solving the two-dimensional diffusion equation subject to a non-local condition involving a double integral in a rectangular region is considered. The solution of this type of problems are complicated. Therefore, a simple meshless method using the radial basis functions is constructed for the non-local boundary value problem with Neumann’s boundary conditions. Numerical examples are included to demonstrate the reliability and efficiency of this method. Also N_e and root mean square errors are obtained to show the convergence of the method.
