Hamming method for solving uncertain differential equations

Uncertain differential equations are important tools to model continuous time varying uncertain phenomena. When analytic solutions become unreachable, numerical solutions provide us important alternatives to solve uncertain differential equations. This paper presents a linear multi-step method, Hamming method, for solving uncertain differen-tial equations. Numerical example shows that the Hamming method is more efficient and effective than the general linear one-step method (e.g. Euler method and Runge-Kutta method). Finally, extreme value and time integral of solutions are also given via Hamming method for illustrating purpose. (C) 2017 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
