Solving a nonlinear system of second order boundary value problems

In this paper, a method is presented to obtain the analytical and approximate solutions of linear and nonlinear systems of second order boundary value problems. The analytical solution is represented in the form of series in the reproducing kernel space. In the mean time, the approximate solution un(x) is obtained by the n-term intercept of the analytical solution and is proved to converge to the analytical solution. Some numerical examples are studied to demonstrate the accuracy of the present method. Results obtained by the method indicate the method is simple and effective. © 2006 Elsevier Inc.
