Numerical solutions for some coupled systems of nonlinear boundary value problems

From MaRDI portal





The aim of the paper is to discuss the following coupled system of nonlinear boundary value problems: \(-\nabla^ 2u=f^{(1)}(x,u,v),\quad -\nabla^ 2v=f^{(2)}(x,u,v),\quad \quad (x\in \Omega),\) \(B^{(1)}[u]=g^{(1)}(x)\), \(B^{(2)}[v]=g^{(2)}(x)\), (x\(\in \Omega)\), where \(f^{(1)}\) and \(f^{(2)}\) are any two continuous functions on \(\Omega \times {\mathbb{R}}^+\times {\mathbb{R}}^+\). The system is motivated by applications in physical and biochemical reaction-diffusion systems, especially the Volterra-Lotka model. The problem can be replaced by a finite difference system. An iterative scheme for the finite difference equations is presented and the convergence of the iterations is shown. The author gives an application to the Volterra-Lotka model. Some numerical results for the boundary value problem with a different type of boundary conditions are given.
