  2. Ordinary differential equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ordinary_differential_equation

    e. In mathematics, an ordinary differential equation ( ODE) is a differential equation (DE) dependent on only a single independent variable. As with other DE, its unknown (s) consists of one (or more) function (s) and involves the derivatives of those functions. [1] The term "ordinary" is used in contrast with partial differential equations ...

  3. Numerical methods for ordinary differential equations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Numerical_methods_for...

    The same illustration for The midpoint method converges faster than the Euler method, as . Numerical methods for ordinary differential equations are methods used to find numerical approximations to the solutions of ordinary differential equations (ODEs). Their use is also known as "numerical integration", although this term can also refer to ...

  4. Cauchy–Euler equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cauchy–Euler_equation

    Cauchy–Euler equation. In mathematics, an Euler–Cauchy equation, or Cauchy–Euler equation, or simply Euler's equation is a linear homogeneous ordinary differential equation with variable coefficients. It is sometimes referred to as an equidimensional equation. Because of its particularly simple equidimensional structure, the differential ...

  5. Adomian decomposition method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adomian_decomposition_method

    The Adomian decomposition method (ADM) is a semi-analytical method for solving ordinary and partial nonlinear differential equations. The method was developed from the 1970s to the 1990s by George Adomian, chair of the Center for Applied Mathematics at the University of Georgia. [1] It is further extensible to stochastic systems by using the ...

  6. Fixed-point iteration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fixed-point_iteration

    In numerical analysis, fixed-point iteration is a method of computing fixed points of a function. More specifically, given a function defined on the real numbers with real values and given a point in the domain of , the fixed-point iteration is. which gives rise to the sequence of iterated function applications which is hoped to converge to a ...

  7. Method of characteristics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Method_of_characteristics

    e. In mathematics, the method of characteristics is a technique for solving partial differential equations. Typically, it applies to first-order equations, although more generally the method of characteristics is valid for any hyperbolic and parabolic partial differential equation.

  8. Differential equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Differential_equation

    An ordinary differential equation ( ODE) is an equation containing an unknown function of one real or complex variable x, its derivatives, and some given functions of x. The unknown function is generally represented by a variable (often denoted y ), which, therefore, depends on x. Thus x is often called the independent variable of the equation.

  9. Method of undetermined coefficients - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Method_of_undetermined...

    t. e. In mathematics, the method of undetermined coefficients is an approach to finding a particular solution to certain nonhomogeneous ordinary differential equations and recurrence relations. It is closely related to the annihilator method, but instead of using a particular kind of differential operator (the annihilator) in order to find the ...
