Efficacy of Optimal Methods for Nonlinear Equations with Chemical Engineering Applications

In this study, we propose a modified predictor-corrector Newton-Halley (MPCNH) method for solving nonlinear equations. The proposed sixteenth-order MPCNH is free of second derivatives and has a high efficiency index. The convergence analysis of the modified method is discussed. Different problems we...
