NUMERICAL SOLUTION OF THIRD ORDER THREE-POINT BOUNDARY VALUE PROBLEMS OF ORDINARY DIFFERENTIAL EQUATIONS WITH VARIABLE COEFFICIENTS USING VARIATIONAL-COMPOSITE HYBRID FIXED POINT ITERATIVE METHOD
Abstract
This paper explores variational–composite hybrid fixed point iterative scheme for the solution of third order three-point boundary value problems. The method shows a strong convergence which makes it an efficient and reliable technique for finding approximate analytical solutions for third order three-point boundary value problems of ordinary differential equations with variable coefficients. From the numerical experiments carried out, the accuracy of the method was confirmed through the order of convergence obtained.
