Abstract

A new method has been developed for finding rigorous upper and lower bounds to the solution of a wide class of initial value problems. The method is applicable to initial value problems of the following type: x(¨t)+f(t,x,x)˙=0,x(0)=X0,x(˙0)=V0, where f is continuous with continuous first derivatives, Lipschitzian, and ∂f/∂x ≥ 0. An original bounding theorem has been formulated and proven and a numerical technique has been developed for finding the bounding functions in analytic form as linear combinations of Tchebyshev polynomials. The method has been applied to several problems of engineering interest.
