Abstract
Matrix methods, now-a-days, are playing an important role in solving the real life problems governed by
ODEs and/or by PDEs. Many differential models of sciences and engineers for which the existing method-
ologies do not give reliable results, these methods are solving them competitively. In this work, a matrix
methods is presented for approximate solution of the second-order singularly-perturbed delay differential
equations. The main characteristic of this technique is that it reduces these problems to those of solving a
system of algebraic equations, thus greatly simplifying the problem. The error analysis and convergence for
the proposed method is introduced. Finally some experiments and their numerical solutions are given.

1. Introduction
The boundary-value problems for singularly perturbed
delay-differential equations arise in various practical
problems in biomechanics and physics such as in varia-
tional problem in control theory. These problems mainly
depend on a small positive parameter and a delay pa-
rameter in such a way that the solution varies rapidly in
some parts of the domain and varies slowly in some
other parts of the domain. Moreover, this class of prob-
lems possess boundary layers, i.e. regions of rapid
change in the solution near one of the boundary points.
There is a wide class of asymptotic expansion methods
available for solving the above type problems. But there
can be difficulties in applying these asymptotic expan-
sion methods, such as finding the appropriate asymptotic
expansions in the inner and outer regions, which are not
routine exercises but require skill, insight and experi-
mentation. The numerical treatment of singularly per-
turbed problems present some major computational dif-
ficulties and in recent years a large number of special-
purpose methods have been proposed to provide accurate
numerical solutions [1-5] by Kadalbajoo. This type of
problem has been intensively studied analytically and it
is known that its solution generally has a multiscale
character; i.e. it features regions called “boundary lay-
ers” where the solution varies rapidly. And these equa-
tions as well as numerical methods have been studied by
several authors [6-10]. The outer solution corresponds to
the reduced problem, i.e., that obtained by setting the
small perturbation parameter to zero. In recent years, the
Chebyshev method has been used to find the approxi-
mate solutions of differential, difference, integral and
integro-differential-difference equations [11,12]. The main
characteristic of this technique is that it reduces these
problems to those of solving a system of algebraic equa-
tions, thus greatly simplifying the problem.

Polynomials are the only functions that a computer can
evaluate exactly, so we make approximate functions
,ab by polynomials. The uniform norm (or
Chebyshev norm, maximum norm) is defined by

mials, because the classical Weierstrass Theorem is a
fundamental result in the approximation of continuous
functions by polynomials [13-15].

6. Conclusions
In recent years, the
delay differential equations have attracted the attention
of many sciences and engineers. The Chebyshev expan-
sion methods are used to solve the singularly-perturbed
delay differential equations numerically. A considerable
advantage of the method is that the Chebyshev polyno-
mial coefficients of the solution are found very easily by
using computer programs in Maple 9. Shorter computa-
tion time and lower operation count results in reduction
of cumulative truncation errors and improvement of
demonstrate the validity and applicability of the tech-
nique. To get the best approximating solution of the
equation, we take more forms from the Chebyshev ex-
pansion of functions, that is, the truncation limit N must
be chosen large enough. Suggested approximations make
this method very attractive and contributed to the good
agreement between approximate and exact values in the
numerical example.
As a result, the power of the employed method is con-
firmed. We assured the correctness of the obtained solu-
