# Improved finite difference formulas for boundary value problems

## by Theodore Henry Gawain

Written in English

Subjects:
• Partial Differential equations,
• Boundary value problems

This paper deals with the numerical solution of linear differential equations of fourth order by finite differences. It points out significant (but usually overlooked) errors which result from the conventional method of imposing the boundary conditions in such problems. Revised finite difference formulas are derived which apply near the boundaries and which eliminate the above errors. Three commonly encountered boundary conditions are considered. These correspond, in the terminology of beam analysis, to a clamped end, to a simply supported end and to a free end. The improvement in accuracy that can be achieved with the revised formulas is illustrated by two representative examples. The revised formulas are shown to reduce the overall error of the numerical solution by a factor of about five in a typical case. (Author)

With boundary value problems we will have a differential equation and we will specify the function and/or derivatives at different points, which we’ll call boundary values. For second order differential equations, which will be looking at pretty much exclusively here, any of the following can, and will, be used for boundary conditions. For a given boundary value. Where p and q are constants. The following differential equation is solved by finite difference method by using central difference formula. The second order nonlinear ODE is approximated with three point second order accurate central difference formula given as. Therefore substituting above values and using equation.
