Abstract
This study undertakes a comprehensive analysis of second-order Ordinary Differential Equations (ODEs) to examine animal avoidance behaviors, specifically emphasizing analytical and computational aspects. By using the Picard–Lindelöf and fixed-point theorems, we prove the existence of unique solutions and examine their stability according to the Ulam-Hyers criterion. We also investigate the effect of external forces and the system’s sensitivity to initial conditions. This investigation applies Euler and Runge–Kutta fourth-order (RK4) methods to a mass-spring-damper system for numerical approximation. A detailed analysis of the numerical approaches, including a rigorous evaluation of both absolute and relative errors, demonstrates the efficacy of these techniques compared to the exact solutions. This robust examination enhances the theoretical foundations and practical use of such ODEs in understanding complex behavioral patterns, showcasing the connection between theoretical understanding and real-world applications.
