Abstract

This article circumvents the Laplace transform to provide an analytical solution in a power series form for singular, non-singular, linear, and non-linear ordinary differential equations. It introduces a new analytical approach, the Laplace residual power series, which provides a powerful tool for obtaining accurate analytical and numerical solutions to these equations. It demonstrates the new approach’s effectiveness, accuracy, and applicability in several ordinary differential equations problem. The proposed technique shows the possibility of finding exact solutions when a pattern to the series solution obtained exists; otherwise, only rough estimates can be given. To ensure the accuracy of the generated results, we use three types of errors: actual, relative, and residual error. We compare our results with exact solutions to the problems discussed. We conclude that the current method is simple, easy, and effective in solving non-linear differential equations, considering that the obtained approximate series solutions are in closed form for the actual results. Finally, we would like to point out that both symbolic and numerical quantities are calculated using Mathematica software.

1 Introduction

A differential equation or a system of differential equations, along with proper boundary and initial conditions (ICs), is one of the most common outputs when mathematical modeling describes physical, biological, or chemical phenomena. Finding ordinary or partial differential equations and analyzing their solutions are at the heart of applied mathematics [1].

Since ancient times, differential equations have attracted the interest of researchers and scientists from two sides. The first is how to use them to express phenomena and issues that interest them in their specializations and research. On the other hand, there is the question of how to solve these equations. There are a limited number of differential equations, especially linear ones, whose solutions can be determined using the well-known traditional methods based on finite and simple algebraic operations. In contrast, there are many kinds of differential equations that still require the search for simple and accurate solutions. For this reason, the interest of mathematicians in previous decades was and is still in the investigation for analytical and sometimes numerical methods to solve these forms of differential equations.

Many analytical, numerical, and numero-analytical techniques have been proposed previously and recently to provide solutions for differential equations with initial or boundary conditions, such as the Laplace and Fourier transforms method [2], the Adomian decomposition method [35], the variational iteration method [68], the homotopy perturbation method [911], the homotopy analysis method [12, 13], the differential transformation method [1416], the finite difference method [17], the predictor–corrector method [18, 19], the first integral method [20, 21], the Adams–Bashforth Molten method [22], the new iterative method [23, 24], the Crank–Nicolson method [25, 26], the reproducing kernel method [27, 28], the Laplace Adomian decomposition method [11, 29, 30], the He–Laplace method [3133], and others [3436].

Recently, Eriqat et al. [37] presented a new hybrid method in which they combined the Laplace transform (LT) method with the residual power series (PS) method to establish series solutions of the pantograph equation. This method is called the LRPS method, and it simulates the residual PS method but with a different construction and view. It uses the limit concept instead of the concept of the derivative as in the residual PS method. The LRPS method uses the LT to transfer the given differential equation to a new algebraic equation in a new space. The obtained algebraic equation is solved by assuming that it is a solution that has a Laurent series (LS) form. The values of the coefficients of the LS are determined by utilizing the limit at infinity. Then, the inverse LT is used to transfer the LS, which is the solution of the algebraic equation in the Laplace space, to the initial space. Thus, we have obtained the solution to the original problem in the form of PS.

Indeed, the LRPS method is similar to the He–Laplace method’s [3133] idea of searching for the solution of differential equations in Laplace space. The He–Laplace technique uses the variational iteration method or homotopy perturbation method to solve the just-transformed Laplace space. In contrast, the LRPS method uses the PS method to solve that equation using the Laurent series instead of the Taylor series. In addition, the LRPS method is just an easy and fast technique for finding the PS solution coefficients of the differential equations.

The LRPS method has won the admiration and interest of many researchers due to its ease, speed, and efficiency in arriving at exact or accurate approximate solutions to many equations. In addition, the LT was employed in dealing with non-linear problems because it is known that the LT deals only with some categories of linear equations. In 2021, El-Ajou [38] adapted the LRPS method to establish solitary solutions of non-linear time-fractional dispersive partial differential equations and to introduce a vector series solution of some types of hyperbolic system of Caputo time-fractional partial differential equations with variable coefficients [39]. Recently, the LRPS method was used for solving time-fractional Navier–Stokes equations [40], fuzzy quadratic Riccati DEs [41], Lane–Emden equations of fractional order [42], a system of fractional initial value problems (IVPs) [43], autonomous n-dimensional fractional non-linear systems [44], and others [4549].

Despite the extensive publication of research dealing with the new method, all works dealt with specific problems devoid of complexity and generality. Therefore, we aim in this manuscript, first, to employ the LRPS method to provide exact or accurate approximate analytic series solutions to linear ordinary differential equations (ODEs) in their general form, whether their coefficients are constants or analytical functions, which have the following formula:

Subject to the ICs,where is a linear differential operator of order with coefficients being analytic functions. This general equation is difficult to solve by the direct PS method. Herein lays the importance and novelty of the aim of this research.

Since in our world, most events are essentially non-linear and modeled by non-linear equations, the study of non-linear issues is critical in mathematics and physics, engineering, economics, and other disciplines. Solving non-linear problems is difficult, and getting an analytical approximation of a given problem is often more complicated than getting a numerical one. Therefore, the second aim of this paper is to establish analytic approximate solutions to the general form of non-linear ODEs, which have the following form using the proposed method (LRPS method):

Subject to the ICs,where is an analytic function on .

The third objective of this article is to provide a series solution to the singular ODEs, whether linear or non-linear. This type of equation is of great interest to researchers in providing analytical solutions to it, as it appears in the models of many natural phenomena, as well as the difficulty of providing solutions to it.

To determine the efficiency and applicability of the method, we test for three types of errors: exact error, relative error, and residual error. We present the numerical results of the resulting solutions through prepared and organized tables. In addition, we sketch the obtained approximate solution by the proposed method along with the exact solution if we can obtain it to make the comparison on the one hand and to determine the period of convergence to solve the series on the other hand.

2 Basic facts of the LT and PS

In this section, we overview essential facts about the LT and the PS, along with some properties that are needed in this article.

Definition 2.1[50]). We assume that is a continuous function defined for and let . Then, the LT of is the function , denoted and defined as follows:where the improper integral is the convergence on an interval of , which represents the domain of .Also, the inverse LT of a function is the function that is denoted and defined aswhere lies in the right-half plane of the absolute convergence of the Laplace integral.

Definition 2.2[51]). A series that has the representationis called the LS about , where is the variable and 's are the coefficients of the series. The series is known as the analytic or regular part of the LS, while is known as the singular or the principal part of the LS.

Theorem 2.1

Theorem 2.2

Proof. Suppose that can be represented by the LS expansion as in Eq. 2.5. So,

According to part (5) of Lemma 2.1, we have

Multiplying Eq. 2.6 by gives the following expansion:

Using part (5) of Lemma 2.1, it is obvious that

Similarly, multiplying Eq. 2.7 by gives the following expansion:

Again, by parts (5) and (6) of Lemma 2.1, we have

Now, we can find out the general formula for the coefficient . However, we can get it by multiplying Eq. 2.6 by and taking the limit of the resulting equation as ; then, we find that . Thus, the proof is now complete.

Theorem 2.3

Proof.

First, we assume that for , is defined on . Also, we assume the following:

From the definition of the reminder , one can acquire

Eq. 2.10 and Eq. 2.11 lead to the conclusion that . Thus,

The inequality can be discovered by reformulating Eq. 2.12, and so, we got the result.

3 Constructing series solutions to ODEs

In this section, we first use the LRPS method to solve linear ODEs in preparation for solving non-linear ODEs. What is worth noting is the possibility of solving non-linear ODEs, which cannot be carried out using the traditional LT method. We will use the construction that we will get to solve non-linear ODEs when solving singular ODEs, whether linear or non-linear, and this is what we will see in Section 3.3.

3.1 LRPS method for solving linear ODEs

In this section, we demonstrate the steps of the LRPS method for solving linear ODEs. The basic idea of the proposed method is to apply the LT to the linear ODEs and then use the LRPS approach to construct a series solution, in LS form, to the transformed equation. Then, we transform the obtained solution into the required solution in the original space.

To illustrate the idea of the LRPS method in constructing series solutions to the linear ODEs, we consider problems (1.1) and (1.2), considering that is a linear differential operator given bywhere and are arbitrary analytic functions that depend only on , is the unknown function of the independent variables , and is an open interval.

To generate the LRPS solution of the IVP (1.1) and (1.2), first, we apply the LT to both sides of Eq. 1.1 to obtain

Using ICs (1.2) and some properties of the LT, Eq. 3.2 becomes

We assume that in Eq. 3.3 has an expansion in the LS form as

Depending on Theorem 2.3 and the given conditions in Eq. 1.2, the first -coefficients of the expansion (3.4) can be determined, so it can be rewritten as follows:

The th-truncated series of is given by

Thus, one can conclude

To find the values of the unknown coefficients in series (3.7), we define the Laplace residual function (LRF) of Eq. 3.3 asand the th LRF as

It is clear that , , and thus, for and . Therefore, Moreover,

Substituting the first th-truncated series in Eq. 3.7 into the th LRF to obtain

Running the inverse LT in Eq. 3.11, we get

Since the coefficients of the linear operator in Eq. 3.1 are analytic functions, they can be expressed aswhere

So, the linear operator in Eq. 3.1 can be expressed as

Running the operator on Eq. 3.12 according to its new form in Eq. 3.15, we get

Finally, we run the LT in Eq. 3.16 to obtain the required form of the th LRF:

Now, multiplying Eq. 3.17 by , we get the following function:

Taking the limit at infinity to Eq. 3.18, according to Eq. 3.10, we get

Thus, the first approximation of the solution of Eq. 3.3 is

Following that, one can find the value of the coefficient ; to do that, we substitute the th-truncated series, , into the th LRF to get the following:

Performing the previous steps, we obtain the final form of the th LRF:

Again, we multiply Eq. 3.22 by to obtain

Computing the limit at infinity to both sides of the last equation and using Eq. 3.10, we get

So, the second approximation of the solution of Eq. 3.3 is

Like the previous steps, we have

Repeating the steps, one can obtain

Considering a pattern of the obtained coefficients, we easily deduce the coefficient as follows:

According to Eq. 3.14, the recurrence relation (3.28) becomes as follows:

Thus, we can express the )th-approximate solution of Eq. 3.3 by the following formula:

Therefore, the exact solution of Eq. 3.3 can be expressed as

Substituting the result in Eq. 3.29 into Eq. 3.31 and running the inverse LT gives the solutions of IVP (1.1) and (1.2) as follows:

3.2 The LRPS method for solving non-linear ODEs

This section introduces the steps of the LRPS approach in solving non-linear ODEs. To explain the methodology of the proposed method in constructing series solutions to this class, we consider IVP (1.3) and (1.4).

To generate the LRPS solution of the IVP (1.3) and (1.4), we consider the first step; that is, operating the LT to Eq. 1.3 and utilizing conditions (1.4), we obtainwhere is a multivariable function of and , .

We assume that given in Eq. 3.33 can be expanded as in Eq. 3.4. According to the conditions given in Eq. 1.4 and Theorem 2.3, series (3.4) also has the form in Eq. 3.5, and the th-truncated series of will be like Eq. 3.6.

To set the values of the unknown coefficients in Eq. 3.6, according to Eq. 3.33, we define the LRF of Eq. 3.33 asand the kth LRF as

According to the form of as in Eq. 3.6, it is clear that has a finite LS as follows:where is a multivariable function of , for .

Substituting the expansions (3.6) and (3.36) in (3.35) gives the following expansion form of the th LRF:

Thus, the th LRF is

Now, we multiply Eq. 3.38 by to get

Now, applying the limit as s → ∞ to both sides of Eq. 3.39 and using the fact in Eq. 3.10, we can easily determine the value of by solving the following equation for :

In the same manner, we find the value of the coefficient by substituting the th-truncated series, , into the th LRF to get the following:

Multiplying by both sides of Eq. 3.41, we get the following function:

Applying the limit at infinity to Eq. 3.42, we obtain the algebraic equation:

Solving Eq. 3.43 implicitly for determines the second unknown coefficient in Eq. 3.6.

Similarly, we compute the third coefficient by substituting the th-truncated series, , into the th LRF to get the following function:

Multiplying Eq. 3.44 by gives

According to fact (3.10), we obtain

Solving Eq. 3.46 for sets another coefficient in Eq. 3.6.

The value of the third unknown coefficient can be obtained by similar arguments and by solving the following equation:

Considering the pattern of the obtained coefficients, we easily conclude the coefficient from the following implicit formula of :

Thus, we can express the )th-approximate solution of Eq. 3.33 in the following shape:

Therefore, the exact analytic solution of Eq. 3.33 is written in a series form:

Running the inverse LT to Eq. 3.50 gives the solution of Eq. 1.3 and Eq. 1.4 in a series expansion as

3.3 The LRPS method for solving singular-value problems

This section presents the LRPS method’s procedure for handling singular-value problems. To do this, let us consider the following singular-value problem:

Subject to the ICs

To solve the initial-singular value problems (3.52) and (3.53), we first multiply Eq. 3.52 by to get

Now applying LT to Eq. 3.54 and using ICs (3.53), we get

Now, suppose that the function Y(s) can be expressed in the form of the expansion of (3.4), and so on. We can complete the steps described in the previous Section 3.2 to obtain the required solution.

4 Applications to linear and non-linear problems

This section presents seven interesting problems with wide applications in physics and other sciences that are discussed and solved by the LRPS method.

Problem 4.1consider the following composite oscillation equation:with respect to the initial conditionComparing Eq. 4.1 with Eq. 1.1 concludes that and Using the results obtained in Section 3.1, we can deduce and . According to the recurrence relation in Eq. 3.29, we can see that , , , , , , , and . Therefore, the 10th approximation of the solution of the IVP (4.1) and (4.2) will be as follows:It is easy to check if the exact solution of Eq. 4.1 and Eq. 4.2 is as follows:To analyze the accuracy of the approximate solution in Eq. 4.3 and determine the interval of convergence, we introduce and compute two types of error, actual and relative errors that are defined, respectively, as follows:andFor analysis and comparison of the exact and approximate solutions of IVP (4.1) and (4.2), Table 1 shows the numerical results of this problem. It displays the exact and approximate results in addition to the actual and relative errors at different values of within the interval . The results indicate that the errors increase when the value of t increases. It is known that by increasing the number of terms in the series solution, the error decreases and the convergence period of the truncated series increases. It should be noted that we can extend the convergence period using the multi-stage technique.

Problem 4.2consider the following Bessel’s equation:Subject to the ICs,According to the existence and uniqueness theorem, it is clear that the IVPs (4.7) and (4.8) have a unique solution in the interval , so we seek to get this solution via the LRPS method. To reach our goal and be able to rely on the construction obtained in Section 3.1, it is necessary to rewrite Eq. 4.7 as follows:Comparing Eq. 4.7 with Eq. 1.1, we find thatwhere and are analytic functions on .Since the coefficients of the linear operator in Eq. 4.10 are analytic functions, they can be expressed as McLaurin expansions as follows:So, according to Eq. 4.11 and Eq. 3.14, we haveComparing with the general formula (3.29), we can find the values of the coefficients as follows:Therefore, the LRPS solution to Problem 4.2 can be expressed in the following series form:The expansion in (4.13) is the same expansion as that of the function . Therefore, the exact solution of the IVP (4.7) and (4.8) has the following closed form:Table 2 shows the numerical results of Problem 4.2. It shows the exact and approximate results in addition to the actual and relative errors at different values of . The displayed data are acceptable and can be improved by increasing the order of the approximation.

Problem 4.3consider the following non-linear nonhomogeneous ODE:Subject to the ICs,Similar to the previous problems, we operate the LT on both sides of Eq. 4.15 and employ the ICs (4.16). Then, we obtain the following equation in the Laplace space:We assume that the solution of Eq. 4.17 has the same LS expansion as in Eq. 3.4. According to ICs (4.16), the th-truncated series of becomesTo set the value of the unknown coefficients in series (4.18), we utilize the kth LRF of Eq. 3.17, which is defined asTo determine the coefficient , we substitute into and run the operators in Eq. 4.19 to get the following rational function:Employing fact (3.10), the solution of the equation for introduces Similarly, to find out the value of the second unknown coefficient , we substitute into the 4th-LRF to get the following:Utilizing fact (3.10) via Eq. 4.21 gives . Using the same procedure as mentioned above, we can find more coefficients for series (4.18). Some of them are So, the series solution to Eq. 4.31 has the following LS:Therefore, the LRPS solution to Eq. 4.15 and Eq. 4.16 can be expressed in the following series form:which is the expansion of the exact solution

Problem 4.4consider the following non-linear pantograph equation:Subject to the ICs,Following the same procedure as in the previous problems, we can express the LRPS solution to IVP (4.24) and (4.25) in the formSince we cannot predict the pattern in the coefficients of the series solution in Eq. 4.26, we cannot reach the exact solution. Therefore, we test the results using the residual and relative errors, which are defined as follows, respectively:Table 3 shows the numerical results of Problem 4.4. It displays the 10th approximate solution in addition to the residual and relative errors at different values of within the interval . The results indicate that the LRPS solution is acceptable mathematically in the period

Problem 4.5consider the following homogenous linear singular ODE:with respect to the ICs:We apply the LT on both sides of Eq. 4.29 and use the ICs in Eq. 4.30 to obtain the following symbolic algebraic equation in the Laplace space:Suppose that the solution of Eq. 4.31 has a LS expansion as in Eq. 3.4. According to ICs (4.30), the th-truncated series (3.6) can be expressed asTo set the unknown coefficient in series (4.32), we define the th LRF of Eq. 4.31 as follows:We substitute into and run the operators in Eq. 4.34 to get the following function:Solving the equation gives . Thus, the first approximation of the solution of Eq. 4.31 is .Again, we substitute 3rd-truncated series, , into the 3rd LRF to get the following:Consequently, the equation gives .Likewise, we substitute the 4th-truncated series, , into the 4th LRF to get the following:Solving the equation gives . Applying the same procedure for leads to , , , and . Thus, we conclude that the solution of Eq. 4.31 has the following expansion:Applying the inverse LT to Eq. 4.38 gives the LRPS solution to the IVP (4.29) and (4.30) in the following PS form:It is clear that the closed form of the exact solution of IVP (4.50) and (4.51) is .

Problem 4.6consider the following non-homogeneous nonlinear Lane–Emden singular ODE:considering the ICs:Using similar arguments to the previous problem, one can obtain the series solution of the LT of the IVP (4.40) and (4.41) as follows:Applying the inverse LT on Eq. 4.42 gives the LRPS solution of the IVP (4.40) (4.41) in the following series form:There is no pattern between the series terms in Eq. 4.43. So, it is difficult to predict the exact solution formula. Thus, we suffice with the approximate solution we got for Problem 4.6. It is worth noting that the more terms we calculate for the LRPS solution, the longer the series convergence interval and the higher the accuracy of the solution. Therefore, we test the 8th approximate LRPS solution for Problem 4.6 using the residual and relative errors, which are defined as follows, respectively:Table 4 shows the numerical results of Problem 4.6. It illustrates the 8th approximate solution in addition to the residual and relative errors at different values of within the interval .

Problem 4.7We consider the following micro-electromechanical system (MEMS) [52]:with the ICs:

This dynamic differential equation is used to describe the wire’s movement as a point mass, where is the dimensionless distance and is a voltage-related parameter.

Simulating the previous examples, the LT of the IVP (4.46) and (4.47) is given by the following algebraic equation:

Applying the arguments and processes of the LRPS method, one can obtain the LRPS solution to the algebraic Eq. 4.48 as follows:

Applying the inverse LT to Eq. 4.49 gives the LRPS solution of the IVP (4.46) (4.47) as follows:

To test the accuracy of the obtained solution given in (4.50), we compute the residual and relative errors to the 10th approximation of the solution. Table 5 shows the 10th approximate solution in addition to the residual and relative errors at different values of within the interval . The results indicate that the obtained solution is acceptable mathematically.

On the other hand, what specialists in MEMS system implementations are most interested in is the pull-in phenomenon analysis. The MEMS system in Eq. 4.46 and Eq. 4.47 conducts either periodically or unsteadily. This behavior depends on the value of the voltage-related parameter, . At small values of , the solution of the system is stable and periodic, whereas at large values of , it becomes unstable, called pull-in instability. Figure 1 shows that the system is stable and periodic at values less than or equal to the critical value () [52], and it becomes unstable at values greater than the critical one.

5 Conclusion

This study aims to test the efficiency of the LRPS method in finding series solutions for ODEs, which are difficult to solve in the analytical methods. We have succeeded in providing a solution to the general form of linear ODEs whose coefficients are analytical functions as an exact solution in a PS form. We also dealt with non-linear ODEs in the proposed technique and found approximate solutions with high accuracy. The biggest surprise is the success of the LRPS method in providing series solutions for the equations about the singular points that coincide with the exact results in some examples. Using the LRPS method, there is no longer an obstacle to obtaining a PS solution for a broad class of ODEs. In addition, the idea of the method circumvented the use of the LT to solve non-linear equations to which the LT is difficult to apply. In addition to the method’s efficiency in arriving at exact solutions, LRPS is easy and fast in finding the coefficients of a series solution. There is no doubt that we can use the new method to solve other sets of equations that we did not have to deal with in previous studies, such as using it to solve partial differential equations, integral equations, integrodifferential equations, and linear or non-linear, as well as algebraic equations. We should not forget that the method has not been applied to solve differential equations with boundary conditions. All these and other topics will be under research by our research team in the next stage.
