Abstract
In this paper, a new difference scheme based on quartic splines is derived for solving linear and nonlinear second-order ordinary differential equations subject to Neumann-type boundary conditions. The scheme can achieve sixth order accuracy at the interior nodal points and fourth order accuracy at and near the boundary, which is superior to the well-known Numerov’s scheme with the accuracy being fourth order. Convergence analysis of the present method for linear cases is discussed. Finally, numerical results for both linear and nonlinear cases are given to illustrate the efficiency of our method.
