Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsSolving Directly Two Point Non Linear Boundary Value Problems Using Direct Adams Moulton MethodZanariah Abdul Majid, Phang Pei See, Mohamed SuleimanProblem statement: In this study, a direct method of Adams Moulton type was developed for solving non linear two point Boundary Value Problems (BVPs) directly. Most of the existence researches involving BVPs will reduced the problem to a system of first order Ordinary Differential Equations (ODEs). This approach is very well established but it obviously will enlarge the systems of … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 7, Issue 2 · 18 May 2011 · 7,882 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFREE CONVECTION OF HEAT TRANSFER IN FLOW PAST A SEMI-INFINITE FLAT PLATE IN TRANSVERSE MAGNETIC FIELD WITH HEAT FLUXP. Geetha, M.B.K. Moorthy, M. DakshinamoorthyA steady two-dimensional MHD free convection of heat transfer in flow past a semi-infinite flat plate in transverse magnetic field with heat flux has been examined. The governing partial differential equation are non-dimensionalised and transformed into a system of nonlinear ordinary differential similarity equations, in a single independent variable η and using Runge-Kutta Gill method with shooting technique. The velocity … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 9 · 4 Jul 2014 · 7,059 accessesView PDFCite
