This paper reviews results about free convection near a vertical flat plate embedded in some saturated porous medium. We focus on a third order autonomous differential equation that gives a special class of solutions called similarity solutions. Two cases are under consideration: in the first one we prescribe the temperature on the plate and in the second one we prescribe the heat flux on it. W...

In this paper we use the continuation theorem of coincidence degree theory and analysis techniques. We establish the existence and uniqueness of a T-periodic solution for the third-order delay differential equation with two deviating arguments. A new result on the existence and uniqueness of a periodic solution of this equation is obtained. In addition an example is given to illustrate the main...

in this paper, the chebyshev spectral collocation method(cscm) for one-dimensional linear hyperbolic telegraph equation is presented. chebyshev spectral collocation method have become very useful in providing highly accurate solutions to partial differential equations. a straightforward implementation of these methods involves the use of spectral differentiation matrices. firstly, we transform ...

In this paper the stability of the upwind scheme for second order, linear ordinary differential equations with general boundary conditions of the third kind is proved. The proof is carried out via compactness arguments and is rather short. Moreover, no information on the behaviour of the solution of the differential equation itself is needed. This approach seems not to be present in the existin...

In this report we study and compare particular integration methods to solve ordinary differential equations, which are separable in solvable parts. The main source for this work is the article of Blanes and Casas: "On the necessity of negative coefficient for operator splitting schemes of order higher than two", which was published by ELSEVIER in 2004. After a brief introduction and some prelim...

This paper intends to investigate the existence of uncountably many bounded positive solutions of a third order nonlinear neutral delay differential equation d dt { r1(t) d dt [ r2(t) d dt ( x(t)− f(t, x(t− σ)) )]} + d dt [ r1(t) d dt g(t, x(p(t))) ] + d dt h(t, x(q(t))) = l(t, x(η(t))), t ≥ t0 in the following bounded closed and convex set Ω(a, b) = { x(t) ∈ C([t0,+∞),R) : a(t) ≤ x(t) ≤ b(t), ...

in this paper, we interpret a fuzzy differential equation by using the strongly generalized differentiability concept. utilizing the generalized characterization theorem. then a novel hybrid method based on learning algorithm of fuzzy neural network for the solution of differential equation with fuzzy initial value is presented. here neural network is considered as a part of large eld called n...
