Abstract:
A spline-in-compression method, implicit in nature, for computing numerical solution of second order nonlinear initial-value problems (IVPs) on a mesh not necessarily equidistant is discussed. The proposed estimation has been derived directly from consistency condition which is third-order accurate. For scientific computation, we use monotonically descending step lengths. The suggested method is applicable to a wider range of physical problems including the problems which are singular in nature. This is possible due to off-step discretization employed in the spline technique. We examine the absolute stability and super-stability of the method when applied to a problem of physical significances. We have shown that the method is absolutely stable in the case of graded mesh and super stable in the case of constant mesh. The advantage of our method lies in it being highly cost and time effective, as we employ a three-point compact stencil, thereby reducing the algebraic calculations considerably. The proposed method which is applicable to singular, boundary layer and singularly perturbed problems is a research gap which we overcame by proposing this new compact spline method.

Accuracy is defined as the closeness of the measured value to the true or actual value. In engineering mechanics, repeated measurements are taken during theoretical or experimental analyses to ensure that the result is precise and accurate.
