We discuss the direct use of cubic-matrix splines to obtain continuous approximations to the unique solution of matrix models of the type $Y''(x) = f(x,Y(x))$. For numerical illustration, an estimation of the approximation error, an algorithm for its implementation, and an example are given.

This paper presents the non-linear generalization of a previous work on matrix differential models. It focusses on the construction of approximate solutions of first-order matrix differential equations Y'(x)=f(x,Y(x)) using matrix-cubic splines. An estimation of the approximation error, an algorithm for its implementation and illustrative examples for Sylvester and Riccati matrix differential equations are given.
