Iterative methods for a fourth order boundary value problem

Abstract We consider a fourth order nonlinear ordinary differential equation together with two-point boundary conditions and provide a-priori error estimates on the length of the interval (b−a) so that the Picard's iterative method, the approximate Picard's iterative method and the quasilinear iterative method convergence to the solution of the problem.
