Abstract

It is a known fact that in modelling real world phenomena, differential equations are indispensable. Uncertainty, unfortunately intervene with such real world problems. The uncertainty may arise from measurement error, determining initial/boundary conditions or even deficient data. Modelling these problems in the form of fuzzy differential equations (FDEs) helps address such setbacks. This research focuses on deriving self-adjusting formulae (SAF) through the variable stepsize strategy for the solution of FDEs with triangular fuzzy numbers. The SAF, which is in the form of implicit block backward differentiation formulae (BBDF) was derived in such a way that it automatically adjusts the stepsize to fit the FDE under consideration. The BBDFs have been known for their unbounded region of absolute stability, thus making them suitable for solving FDEs. The results obtained showed that the SAF is computationally efficient, robust and reliable.
