Abstract

One of the major problems in applied mathematics and engineering sciences is solving nonlinear equations. In this paper, a family of eight-order interval methods for computing rigorous bounds on the simple zeros of nonlinear equations is presented. We present the convergence and er-ror analysis of the introduced methods. Also, the introduced methods are compared with the well-known interval Newton method and interval Ostrowski-type methods. Finally, we propose a technique based on the combination of the newly introduced approach with the extended interval arithmetic to find all of the roots of a nonlinear equation that are located in an initial interval.
