Abstract
This manuscript proposes an implicit two-step hybrid block method which incorporates fourth derivatives, for solving linear and non-linear third-order boundary value problems in ODEs. The derivation of the present method is based on collocation and interpolation techniques, and the convergence analysis of the new strategy is proved to be seventh-order convergent. The proposed approach produces discrete approximations at the grid points, obtained after solving an algebraic system of equations. Numerical experiments are studied to show the performance and viability of the proposed approach. The numerical results demonstrated that the new technique gives accurate approximations, which are better than some existing strategies in the available literature and also found to be in good agreement with known analytical solutions.
