Reliable Approximate Solution of Systems of Delay Volterra Integro-differential EquationsShakourifar, Mohammad 13 August 2013 (has links)
Ordinary and partial differential equations are often derived as a first approximation
to model a real-world situation, where the state of the system depends not only on the
present time, but also on the history of the system. In this situation, a higher level of realism can be achieved by incorporating distributed delays in the mathematical models described by differential equations which results in delay Volterra
integro-differential equations (denoted DVIDEs).
Although DVIDEs serve as indispensable tools for modelling real systems, we still lack efficient and reliable software to approximate the solution of systems of DVIDEs. This thesis is concerned with designing, analyzing and implementing an efficient method to approximate the solution of a general system of neutral Volterra integro-differential
equations with time-dependent delay arguments using a continuous Runge-Kutta (CRK) method. We introduce an adaptive stepsize selection strategy resulting in an approximate solution whose associated defect (residual) satisfies certain properties that allow us to monitor the global error reliably and efficiently. We prove the classic and optimal convergence of the numerical approximation to the exact solution. In addition, a companion system of equations is introduced in order to estimate the mathematical conditioning of the problem. A side effect of introducing this companion system is that it provides an effective estimate of the global error of the approximate solution, at a modest increase in cost.
We have implemented our approach as an experimental Fortran 90 code capable of handling various kinds of DVIDEs with non-vanishing, vanishing, and infinite delay arguments.
