Appl. ttp : // CONSTRUCTION OF POLYNOMIAL BASIS AND ITS APPLICATION TO ORDINARY DIFFERENTIAL EQUATIONS Aliu, T. and 2 Bamigbola O. M. Abstract Te study identifies te versatility of basis functions in epansionary metod by constructing basis functions of finite order, wic satisfy some smootness and differentiability conditions. Effort was intensified towards solving empirical problems via te finite element metod.. Introduction Te inappropriateness, teoretically of te usage of C elements in solving problems of matematical pysics, was first identified by Zienkiewicz []. Suc elements were observed not differentiable at certain inter-element boundary points in te domain over wic te problems are defined. It was owever discovered by Bamigbola [3] tat accurate results can be obtained wit C elements using te identified basis functions. We note tat a basis function is an element of a particular basis for a function space. In fact, every continuous function in a function space can be represented as a linear combination of a basis function. It elps in giving matematical description of a curve or any data distributed over space, time and any oter type of continuum. Received December 22, 24.

Metodology and Results BASIS FUNCTION Te set φ n () of some given functions usually piecewise polynomials defined over a given domain D is called basis functions wen used for an epansion of te form () p() = N a i φ i () i= were a i, i =,,..., N are parameters of te approimation metod. It is pertinent to note tat te coice of te set of basis functions is essential to te epansion metod for various reasons; among wic is te facilitation of computational ease and accuracy of te resulting solution in [2], [3] and [4] polynomial basis functions up to cubic power were constructed wit te zeros of te cebysev polynomials of te first kind and applied using te finite element metod to solve two points boundary value problems. In [7] te zeroes of te legendre polynomial was employed to obtain same. It was in [8 ] tat a comparative study of te computational efficiency of te above mentioned construction wit some oter polynomial basis functions were considered wit a view to identifying te optimal coice among tem wic could be used as a better approimating tool in te epansion metod. Te result of te eperiment is being generalized in tis present work. We reviewed te derivation of basis function of te nt Order and use MATLAB to obtain te inverse of stiffness matri at eac step of te construction. Wit te use of Garlarkin formulation in [3 ] we obtain solution to problems capped in differential equations. DERIVATION OF BASIS FUNCTIONS We denote by Cr n (α) te space of polynomial of finite order defined over a closed interval wic are n-times continuously differentiable in te open interval δ. We note tat n and r are integral values in wic n, r We select mes points i in te real interval [a,b] as i = + i i =, 2, 3,..., m were = (b a) m Te appropriate form of a function p() in te sub interval i, i+ in line wit [2 ] is (2) p() = (n+)(r+) k= a i ( ) k, [a, b]
