Item On the asymptotic behaviour of solutions of certain differential equations of the third order(2014-03) Ademola, T. A.; Arawomo, P. O.In this article, Lyapunov second method is used to obtain criteria for uniform ultimate boundedness and asymptotic behaviour of solutions of nonlinear differential equations of the third order. The results obtained in this investigation include and extend some well known results on third order nonlinear differential equations in the literature.Item Boundedness and asymptotic behaviour of solutions of a nonlinear differential equation of the third order(2012) Ademola, T. A.; Arawomo, P. O.In this paper, we use Lyapunov second method. A complete Lyapunov function was constructed and used to obtain criteria for boundedness, uniform ultimate boundedness and asymptotic behaviour of solutions of a nonlinear differential equation of the third order. Our results revise, improve and extend existing results on boundedness, uniform ultimate boundedness and asymptotic behaviour of solutions of third order nonlinear differential equations in the literature.Item Stability, boundedness and asymptotic behaviour of solutions of certain nonlinear differential equations of the third order(2011) Ademola, T. A.; Arawomo, P. O.Criteria are established for uniform asymptotic stability, boundedness, uniform ultimate boundedness and asymptotic behaviour of solutions of certain third order nonlinear differential equations with the restoring nonlinear terms depend on t and multiplied by functions of t. By constructing a complete Lyapunov function, Lyapunov second method, the technique of Antoisewicz [8] and the limit point of Yoshizawa [22] are employed to obtain the results. Recent results on third order nonlinear differential equations and the results which have been discussed in [16] are special cases of our results.Item Stability and uniform ultimate boundedness of solutions of a third-order differential equation(Academic Publications, 2010) Ademola, T. A.; Arawomo, P. O.This paper is concerned with uniform ultimate boundedness of solutions of a third-order nonlinear differential equation (1.1). Sufficient conditions under which all solutions x(t), its first and second derivatives tend to zero as t —∞, when p(t,x,x',x") = 0, are presented.Item On the stability and ultimate boundedness of solutions for certain third order differential equations(Science Publications, 2008) Ademola, T. A.; Arawomo, P. O.With respect to our observation in the relevant literature, work on stability and boundedness of solution for certain third order nonlinear differential equations where the nonlinear and the forcing terms depend on certain variables are scare. The objective of this study was to get criteria for stability and boundedness of solutions for these classes of differential equations. Approach: Using Lyapunov second or direct method, a complete Lyapunov function was constructed and used to obtain our results. Results: Conditions were obtained for: (i) Uniform asymptotic stability and, (ii) Uniform ultimate boundedness, of solutions for certain third order non-linear non-autonomous differential equations. Conclusion: Our results do not only bridge the gap but extend some well-known results in the literature.
