We consider collocation and interpolation of the approximate solution at some selected grid and off grid points to give a system of nonlinear equations, solving for the unknown constants using Guassian elimination method and substituting into the approximate solution gives the continuous block method. We investigate the basic properties of the derived method, numerical examples show that the method is suitable for solving fourth order initial value problem of ordinary differential equations.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
