    Comparative Numerical Evaluation of Some Runge-Kutta Methods for Solving First Order Systems of ODEs
    (Toros University Publishing house, Turkey, 2025-12-12) Khadeejah James Audu; Tunde Adekunle Abubakar; Yahaya Yusuph Amuda; James Essien Nkereuwem
    In this study, a comparative analysis of two Runge-Kutta methods; fourth-order Runge-Kutta method and Butcher’s Fifth Order Runge-Kutta method are presented and used to solve systems of first-order linear Ordinary Differential Equations (ODEs). The main interest of this work is to test the accuracy, convergence rate and computational efficiency of these methods by using different numerical problems of ODEs. Empirical conclusions are drawn after close observation of the results presented by the two methods, which further highlights their limitations and enabling researchers to make informed decisions in choosing the appropriate technique for specific systems of ODEs problems.

    Advancements in Solving Higher-Order Ordinary Differential Equations via the Variational Iterative Method.
    (Akdeniz University, Turkey, 2025-12-30) Khadeejah James Audu; Michael Ogbole Ogwuche; Sıkırulaı Abolaji Akande; Yahaya Yusuph Amuda
    This study presents advancements in solving higher-order ordinary differential equations (ODEs) using the Variational Iterative Method (VIM) and compares its performance with the New Iteration Method (NIM) and Adomian Decomposition Method (ADM). ODEs are critical in modeling the rate of change in various systems over time, and many do not have exact solutions, necessitating the use of numerical methods to obtain approximate results. While several iterative methods exist, a detailed comparison of VIM with other techniques, particularly for higher-order ODEs, is still lacking. This research focuses on understanding the principles and methodology of VIM and applying it to solve higher-order linear and nonlinear ODEs. The study evaluates the accuracy, convergence rate, and computational efficiency of VIM compared to NIM and ADM through the solution of third, fourth, and fifth-order differential problems. The results show that VIM outperforms NIM and ADM, with faster convergence and higher efficiency. Error analysis in Figures 1, 2, and 3 highlights the strengths and limitations of each method, providing valuable insights for researchers and practitioners in selecting the most appropriate technique for solving higher-order ODEs. These findings advance the development of iterative methods in numerical analysis and contribute to progress in the field of differential equations.

    THE PRACTICAL INTEGRATION OF LINEAR ALGEBRA IN GENETICS, CUBIC SPLINE INTERPOLATION, ELECTRIC CIRCUITS AND TRAFFIC FLOW
    (Bitlis Eren University, Turkey, 2024-06-28) Khadeejah James Audu; Yak Chiben Elisha; Yusuph Amuda Yahaya; Sikirulai Abolaji Akande
    A fundamental mathematical field with many applications in science and engineering is linear algebra. This paper investigates the various applications of linear algebra in the fields of traffic flow analysis, electric circuits, cubic spline interpolation, and genetics. This research delves into individual applications while emphasizing cross-disciplinary insights, fostering innovative solutions through the convergence of genetics, cubic spline interpolation, circuits, and traffic flow analysis. The research employs specific methodologies in each application area to demonstrate the practical integration of linear algebra in genetics, cubic spline interpolation, electric circuits, and traffic flow analysis. In genetics, linear algebra techniques are utilized to represent genetic data using matrices, analyze genotype distributions across generations, and identify genotype-phenotype associations. For cubic spline interpolation, linear algebra is employed to construct smooth interpolating curves, involving the derivation of equations for spline functions and the determination of coefficients using boundary conditions and continuity requirements. In electric circuit analysis, linear algebra is crucial for modeling circuit elements, formulating systems of linear equations based on Kirchhoff's laws, and solving for voltage and current distributions in circuits. In traffic flow analysis, linear algebra techniques are used to represent traffic movement in networks, formulate systems of linear equations representing traffic flow dynamics, and solve for traffic flow solutions to optimize transportation networks. By addressing contemporary challenges, emerging research frontiers, and future trajectories at the intersection of linear algebra and diverse domains, this study underscores the profound impact of mathematical tools in advancing understanding and resolving complex real-world problems across multiple fields.
