Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsA Multiderivative Collocation Method for 5th Order Ordinary Differential EquationsS. J. Kayode, D. O. AwoyemiProblem statement: The conventional methods of solving higher order differential equations have been by reducing them to systems of first order equations. This approach is cumbersome and increases computational time. Approach: To address this problem, a numerical algorithm for direct solution of 5th order initial value problems in ordinary differential equations (odes), using power series as basis function, is proposed … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2010 · 8,928 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordDerivation of the Limits for Control Chart Using the Median Absolute Deviation for Monitoring Non-Normal ProcessK. S. Adekeye, P. I. AzubuikeProblem statement: The Shewhart and S control charts, in the literature, were combined to evaluate the stability of a process. These charts were based on the fundamental assumption of normality of the quality characteristics under investigation. Approach: In practice, the normality assumption was often violated by real life data, therefore, use of the Shewhart and S control charts on real … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 24 Dec 2011 · 8,435 accessesView PDFCite
