The idea of the presented method is based on the shooting method using the expansion of the desired function into Taylor’s series including second-order derivatives. Effective use of the iteration formula requires introduction of sensitivity functions and their derivatives. In each iteration, the initial problem, composed of n(1+ n1+ n21 ) first-order differential equations, must be solved, where n1 signifies the number of unknown parameters. The convergence of the presented method has been illustrated on an example.}, doi = {10.4467/2353737XCT.14.037.1963}, url = {https://ejournals.eu/czasopismo/czasopismo-techniczne/artykul/cubically-convergent-method-for-solving-a-standard-boundary-value-problem} }
