Comparative Studies between Picard’s and Taylor’s Methods of Numerical Solutions of First Ordinary Order Differential Equations Arising from Real-Life Problems

To solve the first-order differential equation derived from the problem of a free-falling object and the problem arising from Newton’s law of cooling, the study compares the numerical solutions obtained from Picard’s and Taylor’s series methods. We have carried out a descriptive analysis using the MATLAB software. Picard’s and Taylor’s techniques for deriving numerical solutions are both strong mathematical instruments that behave similarly. All first-order differential equations in standard form that have a constant function on the right-hand side share this similarity. As a result, we can conclude that Taylor’s approach is simpler to use, more effective, and more accurate. We will contrast Rung Kutta and Taylor’s methods in more detail in the following section.

Numerical Solution of Constrained Mechanical System Motions Equations and Inverse Problems of Dynamics

In this paper the method of design of kinematical and dynamical equations of mechanical systems, applied to numerical ealization, is proposed. The corresponding difference equations, which are obtained, give a guarantee of computations with a given precision. The equations of programmed constraints and those of constraint perturbations are defined. The stability of the programmed manifold for numerical solutions of the kinematical and dynamical equations is obtained by corresponding construction of the constraint perturbation equations. The dynamical equations of system with programmed constraints are set up in the form of Lagrange’s equations in generalized coordinates. Certain inverse problems of rigid body dynamics are examined.

We investigate the stability of adaptations of the θ-methods in the numerical solution of test equations u'(t) = a 11 u(t) + a12v(t) + b11 u(t - τ1) + b12v(t-τ2,v'(t) = a21 u(t) + a22 v(t) + b21 u(t -τ1,) + b22 v(t -τ2), t>0,with initial conditionsu(t)=u0(t),v(t) =v0(t), t≤0.where aij, bij∈C, τj >0, i,j = 1,2,, and u0(t), v0(t)are continuous and complex valued. Sufficient conditions for the asymptotic stability of test equation are derived. Furthermore, with respect to an appropriate definition of stability for the numerical method, it is proved that the linear θ-method is stable if and only if 1/2≤θ≤1 and the one-leg θ-method is stable if and only if θ= 1.

The Numerical Solutions of Systems of Nonlinear Integral Equations with the Spline Functions

The main goal of this work is to develop an effective technique for solving nonlinear systems of Volterra integral equations. The main tools are the cardinal spline functions on small compact supports. We solve a system of algebra equations to approximate the solution of the system of integral equations. Since the matrix for the algebraic system is nearly triangular, It is relatively painless to solve for the unknowns and an approximation of the original solution with high precision is accomplished. In order to enhance the accuracy, several cardinal splines are employed in the paper. Our schemes were compared with other techniques proposed in recent papers and the advantage of our method was exhibited with several numerical examples.

Approximate Formulation and Numerical Solution for Hypersingular Boundary Integral Equations in Plane Elasticity

Based on the fact that the singular boundary integrals in the sense of Cauchy principal value can be represented approximately by the mean values of two companion nearly singular boundary integrals, a vary general approach was developed in the paper. In the approach, the approximate formulation before discretization was constructed to cope with the difficulties encountered in the corner treatment in the formulations of hypersingular boundary integral equations. This makes it possible to solve the hypersingular boundary integral equation numerically in a non regularized form and in a local manner by using conforming C 0 quadratic boundary elements and standard Gaussian quadratures similar to those employed in the conventional displacement BIE formulations. The approximate formulation is very convenient to use because the corner information is comprised naturally in the representations of those approximate integrals. Numerical examples in plane elasticity show that with the present approach, the compatible or better results can be achieved in comparison with those of the conventional BIE formulations.

The method has the advantage of improving the numerical stability and convergence rate by properly determining the relaxation factor. The range of the relaxation factor making the differential scheme unconditionally stable is determined by stability analysis. Several verifications are performed to examine the accuracy of the present model. The numerical results coincide with the analytic solutions or experimental data very well and the computer time is reduced.
