Abstract:

‎The ‎method ‎of ‎quasilinearization ‎is ‎an ‎effective ‎tool ‎to ‎solve nonlinear ‎equations ‎when ‎some ‎conditions‎ on ‎the ‎nonlinear term ‎of ‎the ‎problem ‎are ‎satisfi‎‎ed. ‎W‎hen ‎the ‎conditions ‎hold, ‎applying ‎this ‎techniqu‎e ‎gives ‎two ‎sequences of ‎coupled ‎linear ‎equations‎ and ‎the ‎solutions ‎of ‎th‎ese ‎linear ‎equations ‎are quadratically ‎convergent ‎to ‎the ‎solution ‎of ‎the ‎nonlinear ‎problem. ‎In ‎this ‎article, ‎using ‎some ‎transformations‎, ‎the ‎well-known ‎Blasius ‎equation ‎which ‎is a‎ ‎nonlinear ‎third ‎order ‎boundary ‎value ‎problem,‎ ‎is ‎converted ‎to a‎ ‎nonlinear ‎Volterra ‎integral ‎equation ‎satisfying ‎‎the ‎conditions ‎of ‎the ‎quasilinearization ‎scheme. ‎By applying the quasilinearization, ‎‎‎‎the‎ ‎solutions‎ of the ‎‎obtained ‎linear ‎integral ‎equations ‎are ‎approximated ‎by ‎the ‎collocation ‎method. ‎Employing‎ ‎the ‎inverse ‎of ‎the ‎‎transformation gives the approximation solution of the Blasius equation. ‎E‎rror analysis is performed and comparison of results with the other methods shows the priority ‎of ‎the ‎proposed ‎method.‎

The Blasius equation

The Blasius problem f ′′′ + ff ′′ = 0, f(0) = −a, f ′(0) = b, f ′(+∞) = λ is investigated, in particular in the difficult and scarcely studied case b < 0 λ. The shape and the number of solutions are determined. The method is first to reduce to the Crocco equation uu′′ + s = 0 and then to use an associated autonomous planar vector field. The most useful properties of Crocco solutions appear to b...

APPLICATION OF HPM AND HAM TO THE FIRST FORM OF BLASIUS EQUATION

In this work, the Blasius equation is studied. Homotopy perturbation method (HPM) and homotopy analysis method (HAM) are applied to obtain its solution. Comparison with variational iteration method (VIM) is made to highlight the significant features of employed methods and their capability of handling nonlinear problems. The outcome shows the success of (HPM) and (HAM) for solving nonlinear pro...

A numerical scheme for space-time fractional advection-dispersion equation

In this paper, we develop a numerical resolution of the space-time fractional advection-dispersion equation. We utilize spectral-collocation method combining with a product integration technique in order to discretize the terms involving spatial fractional order derivatives that leads to a simple evaluation of the related terms. By using Bernstein polynomial basis, the problem is transformed in...

Unconditionally Stable Difference Scheme for the Numerical Solution of Nonlinear Rosenau-KdV Equation

In this paper we investigate a nonlinear evolution model described by the Rosenau-KdV equation. We propose a three-level average implicit finite difference scheme for its numerical solutions and prove that this scheme is stable and convergent in the order of O(τ2 + h2). Furthermore we show the existence and uniqueness of numerical solutions. Comparing the numerical results with other methods in...

A Numerical Method for Solving Stochastic Volterra-Fredholm Integral Equation

In this paper, we propose a numerical method based on the generalized hat functions (GHFs) and improved hat functions (IHFs) to find numerical solutions for stochastic Volterra-Fredholm integral equation. To do so, all known and unknown functions are expanded in terms of basic functions and replaced in the original equation. The operational matrices of both basic functions are calculated and em...
