Introduction. The main objective of this chapter is to develop appropriate formulas for approximating the integral of the form. = ∫ f ( x ) dx (1)
Example 1. Let f[x] be. (a) Numerically approximate the integral by using Simpson's 3/8 rule with m = 1, 2, 4. (b) Find the analytic value of the integral (i.e. find the "true value"). (c) Find the error for the Simpson' 3/8 rule approximations. Solution 1 (a). We will use simulated hand computations for the solution. (1. Solution 1 (b).
Simpson’s Rule. Programming Integration. In Calculus, you learned two basic ways to approximate the value of an integral: Reimann sums: rectangle areas with heights calculated at the left side, right side, or midpoint of each interval. Trapezoidal sums: areas of trapezoids formed at each interval.
Computer Algorithm for Mixed Simpson 1/3 and 3/8 Rule for Integration. Based on the earlier discussion on (single and composite) Simpson 1/3 and 3/8 rules, the following “pseudo” step-by-step mixed Simpson rules for estimating \[I = \int_{a}^{b}{f(x){dx}}\] can be given as. Step 1. User inputs information, such as \[f(x) = \text{integrand}\]
Simpson’s 3=8 rule This is to use a third-order Lagrange polynomial to fit to four points of f(x) and yields I … 3h 8 [f(x0)+3f(x1)+3f(x2)+f(x3)] where h = (b¡a)=3. The approximation error using this rule is Et = ¡ 3 80 h5f(4)(») = ¡ (b¡a)5 6480 f(4)(») where » is between a and b. 12
Aim: To evaluate a definite integral by Simpson’s 3/8 Rule. Algorithm: Given a function f(x): (Get user inputs) Input a,b=endpoints of interval n=number of intervals(Even) (Do the integration) Set h= (b-a)/n. Set sum=0. *i. If i%3=0 Then Set sum=sum+2*f(x) Else Set sum=sum+3*f( Set sum = sum + f(a)+f(b) Set ans = sum*(3h/8). End.
Simpson’s 3/8th Rule. Similar to Simpson’s 1/3rd rule, if we take a third order polynomial we can derive the 3/8th rule as follows. • Here h=(b-a)/3. Numerical problem on 3/8th rule with 4 points. Numerical problem on 1/3rd + 3/8th rule with 5 points. Integration with Unequal segments.
