QUESTION 1 [30 MARKS]
(a) Discuss the general Iterated quadrature rule for obtaining the following integral
[= f. fGdax
(1.1)
and hence state the Iterated Trapezoidal Rule for (1.1).
[5]
(b) From your Composite Trapezoidal rule in (a), state the Romberg’s Method for solving (1.1) and
hence using the unit interval [0, 1] for the integral
b
T(n) =| f(x)dx
and step size
h (b — a)
—
n
obtain the term for the recursive expression T(2”) = T(8) and the expression for R(n, 0) denoting
the Trapezoidal estimate with 2”.
[16]
(c) By just stating the Richardson’s Extrapolation R(n,m) employed in the Romberg’s Table, show
that
R(1,0) = 51R(0,0) +51(6 - af (—)b
(9]
QUESTION 2 [30 MARKS]
(a) Discuss and derive the recursive scheme for the Forward Euler’s Method, using any appropriate
diagram for substantiating your discussion.
[13]
(b) Consider the following IVP:
a dy(t) 2y¥(t)}=3e™a , y(O)=_1
Using a step size of h = 0.1 and tp= 0, employ the method discussed in (1.1) to approximate up to the
5" step, giving your solution in a table showing both the exact and the approximate solution at each
step.
