A numerical method based on the reproducing kernel Hilbert space method for the solution of fifth-order boundary-value problems

Abstract: In this paper, we present a fast and accurate numerical scheme for the solution of fifth-order boundary-value problems. We apply the reproducing kernel Hilbert space method (RKHSM) for solving this problem. The analytic results of the equations have been obtained in terms of convergent series with easily computable components. We compare our results with spline methods, decomposition method, variational iteration method, Sinc-Galerkin method and homotopy perturbation methods. The comparison of the results with exact ones is made to confirm the validity and efficiency.
