Implicit One Step Continuous Hybrid Blocks Methods with Five Off-steps Point from Fifth Degree Chebyshev Polynomials

Abstract In this paper a self starting one step continuous block hybrid formulae{CBHF} with fve off-steps points is developed from zeros of Chebyshev polynomial using collocation and interpolation techniques. The (CHBHF) is then used to produce multiple numerical integrators which are of uniform order and are arrange into a single block matrix equations. These equations…

On the Logical Analysis of the Foundations of Vector Calculus

Abstract A critical analysis of the foundations of standard vector calculus is proposed. The methodological basis of the analysis is the unity of formal logic and of rational dialectics. It is proved that the vector calculus is incorrect theory because: (a) it is not based on a correct methodological basis  – the  unity of formal…
