1.2 Analytical Versus Numerical Analysis

Problem 1-1.
Solution not provided.


Problem 1-2.
The two methods differ on the basis of their respective algorithms. The analytical method is based
on analytical calculus while the numerical method is based on finite differences arithmetic.
Analytical approaches provide direct solutions and will result in exact solutions if they exist.
Analytical methods usually require less time to find a solution. Analytical solution procedure
becomes considerably more complex when constraints are involved. Numerical analysis, on the
other hand, can be used to find solutions of moderately complex problems, and it is quite easy to
include constraints on the unknowns in the solutions. However, numerical methods most often
require a considerable number of iterations in order to find a solution with a reasonable accuracy.
The solution provided by the numerical methods is usually not exact. Therefore, error analysis and
error estimations are required.



1.4 Applications

Problem 1-3.

cos( x) = 1 − x + x −.......
2! 4!
For h = 0.1
x = x0 + h = 0 + 0.1 = 0.1
cos(0.1)  1.00000000 (one term)
(0.1) 2
cos(0.1)  1 − = 0.99500000 (two terms)
22 4
(0.1) (0.1)
cos(0.1) 1 − + = 0.99500417 (three terms)
2 24
True value = 0.99500417
The following table summarizes the results for h = 0.1 to 1.0 in an increment of 0.1:
