A Chebyshev Generated Block Method for Directly Solving Nonlinear and Ill-posed Fourth-Order ODEs
Abstract
This study presents a block method induced by Chebyshev polynomials of first kind for directly solving initial value problems of fourth-order ordinary differential equations without reducing the problems to a system of first-order differential equations. The method was developed by applying interpolation and collocation procedures to a Chebyshev approximate polynomial. The unknown parameters were obtained using the Gaussian elimination method, then substituted into the approximate solution to get the continuous scheme and evaluated at the selected point to give the discrete scheme. The method was zero stable, consistent, and convergent, p-stable as shown by the region of absolute stability and has an order of seven. The accuracy and usability of the developed method were tested by applying it to solve six numerical examples. The method was found to be efficient as it gives minimal error. The numerical results of the method were compared with other works cited in the literature and found to be better as it gives minor errors.
