Abstract
An initial-value technique is presented for solving singularly perturbed two-point boundary-value problems for linear and semilinear second-order ordinary differential equations arising in chemical reactor theory. In this technique, the required approximate solution is obtained by combining solutions of two terminal-value problems and one initial-value problem which are obtained from the original boundary-value problem through asymptotic expansion procedures. Error estimates for approximate solutions are obtained. Numerical examples are presented to illustrate the present technique.
