Existence of solutions for fourth-order nonlinear boundary value problems

In this paper, we discuss the existence and approximation of solutions for a fourth-order nonlinear boundary value problem by using a quasilinearization technique. In the presence of a lower solution α and an upper solution β in the reverse order $\alpha \geq \beta $ α ≥ β , we show the existence of (extreme) solution.

A novel computational method for solving nonlinear Volterra integro-differential equation

In this paper, we study quasilinear Volterra integro-differential equations (VIDEs). Asymptotic estimates are made for the solution of VIDE. Finite difference scheme, which is accomplished by the method of integral identities using interpolating quadrature rules with weight functions and remainder term in integral form, is presented for the VIDE. Error estimates are carried out according to the discrete maximum norm. It is given an effective quasilinearization technique for solving nonlinear VIDE. The theoretical results are performed on numerical examples.

In this paper, we develop a generalized quasilinearization technique for a class of Caputo’s fractional differential equations when the forcing function is the sum of hyperconvex and hyperconcave functions of order m (m≥0), and we obtain the convergence of the sequences of approximate solutions by establishing the convergence of order k (k≥2).

Sine–cosine wavelets operational matrix method for fractional nonlinear differential equation

In this paper, we present a solution method for fractional nonlinear ordinary differential equations. We propose a method by utilizing the sine–cosine wavelets (SCWs) in conjunction with quasilinearization technique. The fractional nonlinear differential equations are transformed into a system of discrete fractional differential equations by quasilinearization technique. The operational matrices of fractional order integration for SCW are derived and utilized to transform the obtained discrete system into systems of algebraic equations and the solutions of algebraic systems lead to the solution of fractional nonlinear differential equations. Convergence analysis and procedure of implementation for the proposed method are also considered. To illustrate the reliability and accuracy of the method, we tested the method on fractional nonlinear Lane–Emden type equation and temperature distribution equation.

Generalized fractional order Chebyshev wavelets for solving nonlinear fractional delay-type equations

In this paper, we develop the generalized fractional order Chebyshev wavelets (GFCWs) from generalized fractional order of Chebyshev polynomials. The operational matrices for the presented wavelets are constructed and derived. We also proposed a technique by utilizing the GFCWs, the method of steps and quasilinearization technique for solving nonlinear fractional delay-type differential equations. According to the development, the method of step is used to transform the fractional nonlinear delay-type differential equation to a fractional nonlinear non-delay differential equation, and then apply the quasilinearization technique to discretize the obtained nonlinear equation. The GFCW method is utilized in each iteration of quasilinearization method for the improvement of solution. We perform the error analysis for the proposed technique. Procedure of implementation for the present method is also provided. Numerical simulation of some examples will be presented to demonstrate the benefits of computing with the present technique over existing methods in literature.

An Iterative Numerical Method for Solving the Lane–Emden Initial and Boundary Value Problems

In this paper, we propose fast iterative methods based on the Newton–Raphson–Kantorovich approximation in function space [Bellman and Kalaba, (1965)] to solve three kinds of the Lane–Emden type problems. First, a reformulation of the problem is performed using a quasilinearization technique which leads to an iterative scheme. Such scheme consists in an ordinary differential equation that uses the approximate solution from the previous iteration to yield the unknown solution of the current iteration. At every iteration, a further discretization of the problem is achieved which provides the numerical solution with low computational cost. Numerical simulation shows the accuracy as well as the efficiency of the method.

An exponentially fitted spline method is presented for solving sequence of linear singularly perturbed delay differential equations. Error estimates of the method is discussed. Numerical examples are solved to show the applicability and efficiency of the proposed scheme.
