Differential equations are used in a variety of fields including pure and applied mathematics,
engineering, and physics. Many of these fields are concerned with the properties of different forms
of differential equations. Solving differential equations along with certain conditions, called initial
value problem (IVP) or boundary value problem, become very important in many research
situations. Differential equations raised in real-world problems are not always explicitly solvable.
That is, they do not always have closed solutions. Instead, numerical methods can be used to
approximate solutions. Chebyshev polynomials are two sequences of polynomials related to the sine
and cosine functions. They are orthogonal polynomials that are related to De Moivre’s formula.
They have numerous properties which make them useful in areas like solving polynomials and
approximating functions. Chebyshev approximation produces a nearly optimal approximation,
coming close to minimizing the absolute error. Robertson, A. S. (2013) discussed a method for
finding an approximate particular solutions for second-order non-homogeneous ordinary differential
equations. Yang Zhongshu and Zhang Hongbo (2015), in their work, developed a computational
method for solving a class of fractional partial differential equations with variable coefficients based
on Chebyshev polynomials. In this research, we developed a method to find approximate particular
solutions for the third-order linear differential equations. Here we used the Chebyshev polynomial to
approximate the source function and the particular solution of an ordinary differential equation.
The derivatives of each Chebyshev polynomial will be represented by linear combinations of
Chebyshev polynomials. Then the differential equations will become algebraic equations. Here we
took the first six polynomials of Chebyshev polynomials of the first kind because when we approximate
the function by Chebyshev polynomials, the coefficients of higher-order Chebyshev polynomials
are negligible. The main objective of this study is to approximate the solution of the third-order linear
differential equation by Chebyshev polynomial as close as possible to the exact solution. We
applied our proposed method to some algebraic, trigonometry, and exponential functions. This
approach is compared with another well-known existing method, Euler’s method. Our proposed
approach provides more efficiency compared to the existing method. |
