Notes

bvp_coll_nlin_interp and its associated functions (bvp_coll_nlin_setup(), bvp_coll_nlin_solve(), bvp_coll_nlin_contin() and bvp_coll_nlin_diag()) solve the two-point boundary value problem for a nonlinear mixed order system of ordinary differential equations

over an interval subject to () nonlinear boundary conditions at and () nonlinear boundary conditions at , where . Note that is the th derivative of the th solution component. Hence . The left boundary conditions at are defined as

and the right boundary conditions at as

where and

First, bvp_coll_nlin_setup() must be called to specify the initial mesh, error requirements and other details. Then, bvp_coll_nlin_solve() can be used to solve the boundary value problem. After successful computation, bvp_coll_nlin_diag() can be used to ascertain details about the final mesh and other details of the solution procedure, and bvp_coll_nlin_interp can be used to compute the approximate solution anywhere on the interval using interpolation.

The functions are based on modified versions of the codes COLSYS and COLNEW (see Ascher et al. (1979) and Ascher and Bader (1987)). A comprehensive treatment of the numerical solution of boundary value problems can be found in Ascher et al. (1988) and Keller (1992).
