Eleventh Degree Polynomial Series Solution Approach of Special Non-linear Fourth Order Boundary Value Problems

Abstract

In this paper a new eleventh degree polynomial series solution approach is developed for the solution of special non-linear fourth order boundary value problems. The method consist first of obtaining a linear differentials system of twelve equations from the boundary conditions, governing equation and its three successive derivatives which were evaluated at boundary points. Secondly we assume the approximate solution in the form of a polynomial of degree eleventh with twelve unknown coefficients. To determine the unknown coefficients we incorporate the assumed solution into linear differentials systems of twelve equations which results into a linear systems of twelve equations with twelve unknown and which can be solve uniquely. It is clear from the tables and figures that the method is in good agreement with the exact and with some existing results in the literatures. Also it can be seen from example 3.3 that the exact solution is reproduced which is an added advantage of the method.
