The DI methods for directly solving a system ofa general higher order ODEs are discussed. The convergence of the constant stepsize and constant order formulation of the DI methods is proven first before the convergencefor the variable order and stepsize case.

This paper reports a method to solve ordinary fourth-order differential equations in the form of power series and, for case regular special points, generalized series. An algorithm has been constructed and program developed MAPLE environment (Waterloo, Ontario, Canada) order equations. All types solutions depending on roots governing equation have considered. The examples are given; they compar...

in this paper, we investigate some problems which can be reduced to the goursat problem for afourth order equation. some results and theorems are given concerning the existence and uniqence for thesolution of the suggested problem.

This survey paper reports on the properties of the fourth-order Bessel-type linear ordinary differential equation, on the generated self-adjoint differential operators in two associated Hilbert function spaces, and on the generalisation of the classical Hankel integral transform. These results are based upon the properties of the classical Bessel and Laguerre second-order differential equations...

The steady three-dimensional boundary layer flow and heat transfer of a dusty fluid towards a stretching sheet with convective boundary conditions is investigated by using similarity solution approach. The free stream along z-direction impinges on the stretching sheet to produce a flow with different velocity components. The governing equations are reduced into ordinary differential equations b...

In this paper, we classified a class of fourth-order partial differential equations (PDEs) to be fourth-order PDE of type I, II, III and IV. The PDE of type IV is solved by using an efficient numerical method. The PDE is first transformed to a system of fourth-order ordinary differential equations (ODEs) using the method of lines, then the resulting system of fourth-order ODEs is solved using d...

A new problem is studied, that is to find nonlinear differential equations with special solutions expressed via the Weierstrass function. A method is discussed to construct nonlinear ordinary differential equations with exact solutions. The main step of our method is the assumption that nonlinear differential equations have exact solutions which are general solution of the simplest integrable e...

A wavelet method is proposed for solving a class of nonlinear timedependent partial differential equations. Following this method, the nonlinear equations are first transformed into a system of ordinary differential equations by using the modified wavelet Galerkin method recently developed by the authors. Then, the classical fourth-order explicit Runge-Kutta method is employed to solve the resu...
