%0 Journal Article %T Generalized quasilinearization method and higher order of convergence for second-order boundary value problems %A Melton Tanya G %A Vatsala AS %J Boundary Value Problems %D 2006 %I Springer %X The method of generalized quasilinearization for second-order boundary value problems has been extended when the forcing function is the sum of -hyperconvex and -hyperconcave functions. We develop two sequences under suitable conditions which converge to the unique solution of the boundary value problem. Furthermore, the convergence is of order . Finally, we provide numerical examples to show the application of the generalized quasilinearization method developed here for second-order boundary value problems. %U http://www.boundaryvalueproblems.com/content/2006/25715
