Abstract
In this paper, we give a simple theorem on the waveform relaxation (WR) sol ution for a system of nonlinear second-order differential equations. It is shown that if the norm of certain matrices derived from the Jacobians of th e system equations is less than one, then the WR solution converges. It is also the first time that a convergence condition is obtained for this gener al kind of nonlinear systems in the WR literarture. Numerical experiments a re provided to confirm the theoretical analysis.
