Dynamic Euler–Bernoulli beam equation
I am trying to solve for the vibration of a Euler–Bernoulli beam. The equation is
$\frac{\partial ^2u(t,x)}{\partial t^2}+\frac{\partial ^4u(t,x)}{\partial x^4}=0$
For the boundary conditions I ...

Trouble with differential equation
I tried to solve this differential equation:
$$\epsilon y''(x)+xy'(x)=-\epsilon \pi^2 \cos(\pi x)-\pi x\sin(\pi x)$$
with boundary conditions: $y(-1)=-2, \space y(1)=0$. If we take $\epsilon=0.1$, ...

Why does NDSolve blow up when given my ODE but bvp4c in Matlab does not?
I am numerically solving the following ODE initially using NDSolve in Mathematica(updated and corrected):
$-(-\frac{z'(r)}{r \sqrt{z'(r)^2+1}}-\frac{z''(r)}{\left(z'(r)^2+1\right)^{3/2}})=A_1(z(r)+H)...

Error when solving 't Hooft-Polyakov radial equations using NDSolve
I'm trying to solve 2 coupled nonlinear ODEs using NDSolve, but the solution fails when the parameter $\lambda$ increases. The equations are
$$r^2 a''(r)= a(r) [a(r)-1] [a(r)-2]- r^2 [1-a(r)] h(r)^2,$$...

System of 3 second order non linear differential equations
I wish to solve the following system of equations:
$\frac{d^2f}{dr^2}- \frac{1}{r} \frac{df}{dr} = 2 f(r)\phi(r)^2$
$\frac{d^2\phi}{dr^2} + \frac{1}{r}\frac{d\phi}{dr} = \frac{1}{r^2} f(r)^2\phi(r) + \...

How can I make NDSolve in version 11 use the same methods as version 9?
Sorry for the lack of a minimal working example but the code I am concerned about is rather large and I have no idea what the problem is. All I know is that when I run the code in Mathematica versions ...
