Generalized differential transformation method for solving two-interval Weber equation subject to transmission conditions

Abstract

The main goal of this study is to adapt the classical differential transformation method to solve new types of boundary value problems. The advantage of this method lies in its simplicity, since there is no need for discretization, perturbation or linearization of the differential equation being solved. It is an efficient technique for obtaining series solution for both linear and nonlinear differential equations and differs from the classical Taylor’s series method, which requires the calculation of the values of higher derivatives of given function. It is known that the differential transformation method is designed for solving single interval problems and it is not clear how to apply it to many-interval problems. In this paper we have adapted the classical differential transformation method for solving boundary value problems for two-interval differential equations. To substantiate the proposed new technique, a boundary value problem was solved for the Weber equation given on two non-intersecting segments with a common end, on which the left and right solutions were connected by two additional transmission conditions.
