Abstract

A simple, efficient numerical solution method for nonlinear
boundary value problems is presented. The approach depends on
linearizing the finite-differenced equations for the dependent
variables then solving the correction equation for the dependent
variable by the tri-diagonal matrix method, finally correcting the
solution at each iteration. The method is somewhat similar to
Newton's method in that the Jacobian is evaluated at each iteration,
