Complementary variational principles for φiv = f(φ)
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 24 October 2008
Abstract
Complementary variational principles are developed for boundary-value problems with field equations φiv = f(φ) in (0, 1) subject to φ(0) = φ(1) = 0, φ′(0) = φ′(1) = 0. The theory is applied in the non-linear case f(φ) = – keφ and accurate variational solutions, which are simple polynomials in x, are obtained.
