In this research, we have proposed the simulation of linear block algorithm for modeling third order highly stiff problem without reduction to a system of first order ordinary differential equation, to address the weaknesses in reduction method. The method is derived using the linear block method through interpolation and collocation. The basic properties of the block method were recovered and was found to be consistent, convergent and zero-stability. The new block method is been applied to model third order initial value problems of ordinary differential equations without reducing the equations to their equivalent systems of first order ordinary differential equations. The result obtained on the process on some sampled modeled third order linear problems give better approximation than the existing methods which we compared our result with.
A general one-step hybrid block method with equidistant of order 6 has been successfully developed for the direct solution of second order IVPs in this article. Numerical analysis shows that the developed method is consistent and zero-stable which implies its convergence. The analysis of the new method is examined on two highly and mildly stiff second-order initial value problems to illustrate the efficiency of the method. It is obvious that our method performs better than the existing method within which we compare our result with. Hence, the approach is an adequate one for solving special second order IVPs.
The introduction of new linear block method for the direct simulation of fourth order IVPs has been developed in this article. The reason for adopting direct simulation of fourth order initial value problems is to address some setbacks in reduction method. When developing the method, we adopted the linear block approach through a one step method. We have validated the accuracy of the method on some fourth order initial value problems without reduction process, and the results are better than the conventional method. The numerical experiments were given and the results obtained were found to be better in accuracy than the existing methods in literature.
