Off Grid Collocation Four Step Initial Value Solver for Second Order Ordinary Differential Equations (Published)

The derivation and application of a four step Block Linear Multistep Method is hereby presented.  To achieve this, Chebyshev polynomial was employed as basis function. Chebyshev polynomial was adopted as basis function based on its level of accuracy among other monomials in the interval [-1, 1]. Block method was adopted in this presentation based on its accuracy over the popular Predictor – Corrector method. The method under consideration gives solution at each grid point within the interval of integration. The method was arrived at by interpolating the polynomial equation and collocating the differential equation at some selected points. The order and error constant of the method were investigated likewise the consistency and zero stability which is one of the desirability property of linear multistep method were equally investigated. The method was applied to solve some second order ordinary differential equations and compare its level of accuracy with the analytical solution and equally compare its level of accuracy with some other existing methods.

Initial Value Solvers for Direct Solution of Fourth Order Ordinary Differential Equations in a Block from Using Chebyshev Polynomial as Basis Function (Published)

The numerical computation of fourth order ordinary differential equations cannot be gloss over easily due to its significant and importance. There have been glowing needs to find an appropriate numerical method that will handle effectively fourth order ordinary differential equations without resolving such an equation to a system of first order ordinary differential equations. To this end, this presentation focuses on direct numerical computation to fourth order ordinary differential equations without resolving such equations to a system of first order ordinary differential equations. The method is not predictor – corrector one due to its limitation in the level of accuracy. The method is order wise christened “Block Method” which is a self-starting method. In order to achieve this objective, Chebyshev polynomial is hereby used as basis function.
