Description

nag_ode_bvp_coll_nlin_solve (d02tlc) and its associated functions (nag_ode_bvp_coll_nlin_setup (d02tvc), nag_ode_bvp_coll_nlin_contin (d02txc), nag_ode_bvp_coll_nlin_interp (d02tyc) and nag_ode_bvp_coll_nlin_diag (d02tzc)) solve the two-point boundary value problem for a nonlinear mixed order system of ordinary differential equations
y1m1 x = f1 x,y1,y11,,y1m1-1,y2,,ynmn-1 y2m2 x = f2 x,y1,y11,,y1m1-1,y2,,ynmn-1 ynmn x = fn x,y1,y11,,y1m1-1,y2,,ynmn-1  
over an interval a,b subject to p (>0) nonlinear boundary conditions at a and q (>0) nonlinear boundary conditions at b, where p+q = i=1 n mi . Note that yi m x is the mth derivative of the ith solution component. Hence yi 0 x=yix. The left boundary conditions at a are defined as
gizya=0,  i=1,2,,p,  
and the right boundary conditions at b as
g-jzyb=0,  j=1,2,,q,  
where y=y1,y2,,yn and
zyx = y1x, y11 x ,, y1m1-1 x ,y2x,, ynmn-1 x .  
First, nag_ode_bvp_coll_nlin_setup (d02tvc) must be called to specify the initial mesh, error requirements and other details. Note that the error requirements apply only to the solution components y1,y2,,yn and that no error control is applied to derivatives of solution components. (If error control is required on derivatives then the system must be reduced in order by introducing the derivatives whose error is to be controlled as new variables. See Section 9 in nag_ode_bvp_coll_nlin_setup (d02tvc).) Then, nag_ode_bvp_coll_nlin_solve (d02tlc) can be used to solve the boundary value problem. After successful computation, nag_ode_bvp_coll_nlin_diag (d02tzc) can be used to ascertain details about the final mesh and other details of the solution procedure, and nag_ode_bvp_coll_nlin_interp (d02tyc) can be used to compute the approximate solution anywhere on the interval a,b.
A description of the numerical technique used in nag_ode_bvp_coll_nlin_solve (d02tlc) is given in Section 3 in nag_ode_bvp_coll_nlin_setup (d02tvc).
nag_ode_bvp_coll_nlin_solve (d02tlc) can also be used in the solution of a series of problems, for example in performing continuation, when the mesh used to compute the solution of one problem is to be used as the initial mesh for the solution of the next related problem. nag_ode_bvp_coll_nlin_contin (d02txc) should be used in between calls to nag_ode_bvp_coll_nlin_solve (d02tlc) in this context.
See Section 9 in nag_ode_bvp_coll_nlin_setup (d02tvc) for details of how to solve boundary value problems of a more general nature.
The functions are based on modified versions of the codes COLSYS and COLNEW (see Ascher et al. (1979) and Ascher and Bader (1987)). A comprehensive treatment of the numerical solution of boundary value problems can be found in Ascher et al. (1988) and Keller (1992).

NE_BAD_PARAM
On entry, argument value had an illegal value.
NE_CONVERGENCE_SOL
All Newton iterations that have been attempted have failed to converge.
No results have been generated. Check the coding of the functions for calculating the Jacobians of system and boundary conditions.
Try to provide a better initial solution approximation.
NE_INTERNAL_ERROR
An internal error has occurred in this function. Check the function call and any array sizes. If the call is correct then please contact NAG for assistance.
See Section 2.7.6 in How to Use the NAG Library and its Documentation for further information.
NE_MISSING_CALL
Either the setup function has not been called or the communication arrays have become corrupted. No solution will be computed.
NE_NO_LICENCE
Your licence key may have expired or may not have been installed correctly.
See Section 2.7.5 in How to Use the NAG Library and its Documentation for further information.
NE_SING_JAC
Numerical singularity has been detected in the Jacobian used in the Newton iteration.
No results have been generated. Check the coding of the functions for calculating the Jacobians of system and boundary conditions.
NW_MAX_SUBINT
The expected number of sub-intervals required to continue the computation exceeds the maximum specified: value.
Results have been generated which may be useful.
Try increasing this number or relaxing the error requirements.
NW_NOT_CONVERGED
A Newton iteration has failed to converge. The computation has not succeeded but results have been returned for an intermediate mesh on which convergence was achieved.
These results should be treated with extreme caution.

7
Accuracy

The accuracy of the solution is determined by the argument tols in the prior call to nag_ode_bvp_coll_nlin_setup (d02tvc) (see Sections 3 and 9 in nag_ode_bvp_coll_nlin_setup (d02tvc) for details and advice). Note that error control is applied only to solution components (variables) and not to any derivatives of the solution. An estimate of the maximum error in the computed solution is available by calling nag_ode_bvp_coll_nlin_diag (d02tzc).

8
Parallelism and Performance

nag_ode_bvp_coll_nlin_solve (d02tlc) is threaded by NAG for parallel execution in multithreaded implementations of the NAG Library.
nag_ode_bvp_coll_nlin_solve (d02tlc) makes calls to BLAS and/or LAPACK routines, which may be threaded within the vendor library used by this implementation. Consult the documentation for the vendor library for further information.
Please consult the x06 Chapter Introduction for information on how to control and interrogate the OpenMP environment used within this function. Please also consult the Users' Note for your implementation for any additional implementation-specific information.

Further Comments

If nag_ode_bvp_coll_nlin_solve (d02tlc) returns with fail.code= NE_CONVERGENCE_SOL, NE_SING_JAC, NW_MAX_SUBINT or NW_NOT_CONVERGED and the call to nag_ode_bvp_coll_nlin_solve (d02tlc) was a part of some continuation procedure for which successful calls to nag_ode_bvp_coll_nlin_solve (d02tlc) have already been made, then it is possible that the adjustment(s) to the continuation parameter(s) between calls to nag_ode_bvp_coll_nlin_solve (d02tlc) is (are) too large for the problem under consideration. More conservative adjustment(s) to the continuation parameter(s) might be appropriate.

Example

The following example is used to illustrate the treatment of a high-order system, control of the error in a derivative of a component of the original system, and the use of continuation. See also nag_ode_bvp_coll_nlin_setup (d02tvc), nag_ode_bvp_coll_nlin_contin (d02txc), nag_ode_bvp_coll_nlin_interp (d02tyc) and nag_ode_bvp_coll_nlin_diag (d02tzc), for the illustration of other facilities.
Consider the steady flow of an incompressible viscous fluid between two infinite coaxial rotating discs. See Ascher et al. (1979) and the references therein. The governing equations are
1R f+ff+gg = 0 1R g+fg-fg = 0  
subject to the boundary conditions
f0=f0= 0,   g0=Ω0,   f1=f1= 0,   g1=Ω1,  
where R is the Reynolds number and Ω0,Ω1 are the angular velocities of the disks.
We consider the case of counter-rotation and a symmetric solution, that is Ω0=1, Ω1=-1. This problem is more difficult to solve, the larger the value of R. For illustration, we use simple continuation to compute the solution for three different values of R (=106,108,1010). However, this problem can be addressed directly for the largest value of R considered here. Instead of the values suggested in Section 5 in nag_ode_bvp_coll_nlin_contin (d02txc) for nmesh, ipmesh and mesh in the call to nag_ode_bvp_coll_nlin_contin (d02txc) prior to a continuation call, we use every point of the final mesh for the solution of the first value of R, that is we must modify the contents of ipmesh. For illustrative purposes we wish to control the computed error in f and so recast the equations as
y1 = y2 y2 = -Ry1y2+y3y3 y3 = Ry2y3-y1y3  
subject to the boundary conditions
y10=y20= 0,   y30=Ω,   y11=y21= 0,   y31=-Ω,   Ω=1.  
For the symmetric boundary conditions considered, there exists an odd solution about x=0.5. Hence, to satisfy the boundary conditions, we use the following initial approximations to the solution in guess:
y1x = -x2x-12 x-1 2 y2x = -xx-15x2-5x+1 y3x = -8Ω x-12 3.
