About this document
Two-Term Approximation Solutions by Nelson Corbita is a document available to read on EtoBox.
The document presents the solution to a boundary value problem using the Galerkin method. Two trial functions are used to approximate the solution as a linear combination of the trial functions. The residual of the approximated solution is computed and set to zero based on the Galerkin method. This results in a system of equations that can be solved for the unknown coefficients of the trial functions, providing the approximate solution. Plots compare the approximate and exact solutions.
