Description
Summary:Coupled system of second order linear and nonlinear boundary value problems occur in various fields of Science and Engineering including heat and mass transfer. In the formulation of the problem, any one of 81 possible types of boundary conditions may occur. These 81 possible boundary conditions are written as a combination of four boundary conditions. To solve a coupled system of boundary value problem with these converted boundary conditions, a Galerkin method with cubic Bsplines as basis functions has been developed. The basis functions have been redefined into a new set of basis functions which vanish on the boundary. The nonlinear boundary value problems are solved with the help of quasilinearization technique. Several linear and nonlinear boundary value problems are presented to test the efficiency of the proposed method and found that numerical results obtained by the present method are in good agreement with the exact solutions available in the literature.
