The continuous Legendre and Chebyshev wavelets of the first, second, third and fourth kind on [0,1] are used and are utilized as a basis in Galerkin method to approximate the solution of integral equations. Then, in some examples the mentioned wavelets are compared with each other.

Bell Polynomial Approach for the Solutions of Fredholm Integro- Differential Equations with Variable Coefficients

In this article,we approximate the solution of high order linear Fredholm integro-differential equations with a variable coefficient under the initial-boundary conditions by Bell polynomials.Using collocation points and treating the solution as a linear combination of Bell polynomials,the problem is reduced to linear system of equations whose unknown variables are Bell coefficients.The solution to this algebraic system determines the approximate solution.Error estimation of approximate solution is done.Some examples are provided to illustrate the performance of the method.The numerical results are compared with the collocation method based on Legendre polynomials and the other two methods based on Taylor polynomials.It is observed that the method is better than Legendre collocation method and as accurate as the methods involving Taylor polynomials.

AUTOMATIC AUGMENTED GALERKIN ALGORITHMS FOR FREDHOLM INTEGRAL EQUATIONS OF THE FIRST KIND

In recent papers, Babolian & Delves [2] and Belward[3] described a Chebyshev series method for the solution of first kind integral equations. The expansion coefficients of the solution are determined as the solution of a mathematical programming problem.The method involves two regularization parameters, Cf and r, but values assigned to these parameters are heuristic in nature. Essah & Delves[7] described an algorithm for setting these parameters automatically, but it has some difficulties. In this paper we describe three iterative algorithms for computing these parameters for singular and non-singular first kind integral equations. We give also error estimates which are cheap to compute. Finally, we give a number of numerical examples showing that these algorithms work well in practice.

Exponential Dichotomies and Fredholm Operators of Dynamic Equations on Time Scales

For time-varying non-regressive linear dynamic equations on a time scale with bounded graininess, we introduce the concept of the associative operator with linear systems on time scales. The purpose of this research is the characterizations of the exponential dichotomy obtained in terms of Fredholm property of that associative operator. Particularly, we use Perron’s method, which was generalized on time scales by J. Zhang, M. Fan, H. Zhu in?[1], to show that if the associative operator is semi-Fredholm then the corresponding linear nonautonomous equation has an exponential dichotomy on both?T?+?and?T-.??Moreover, we also give the converse result that the linear systems have?an exponential dichotomy on both?T?+?andT-??then the associative operator is Fredholm on?T.

Convergence of Discrete Adomian Method for Solving a Class of Nonlinear Fredholm Integral Equations

In recent papers the solution of nonlinear Fredholm integral equations was discussed using Adomian decomposition method (ADM). For case in which the integrals are analytically impossible, ADM can not be applied. In this paper a discretized version of the ADM is introduced and the proposed version will be called discrete Adomian decomposition method (DADM). An accelerated formula of Adomian polynomials is used in calculations. Based on this formula, a new convergence approach of ADM is introduced. Convergence approach is reliable enough to obtain an explicit formula for the maximum absolute truncated error of the Adomian’s series solution. Also, we prove that the solution of nonlinear Fredholm integral equation by DADM converges to ADM solution. Finally, some numerical examples were introduced.

Explicit frequency equations of free vibration of a nonlocal Timoshenko beam with surface effects

Considerations of nonlocal elasticity and surface effects in micro-and nanoscale beams are both important for the accurate prediction of natural frequency. In this study, the governing equation of a nonlocal Timoshenko beam with surface effects is established by taking into account three types of boundary conditions： hinged–hinged, clamped–clamped and clamped–hinged ends. For a hinged–hinged beam, an exact and explicit natural frequency equation is obtained. However, for clamped–clamped and clamped–hinged beams, the solutions of corresponding frequency equations must be determined numerically due to their transcendental nature. Hence, the Fredholm integral equation approach coupled with a curve fitting method is employed to derive the approximate fundamental frequency equations, which can predict the frequency values with high accuracy. In short,explicit frequency equations of the Timoshenko beam for three types of boundary conditions are proposed to exhibit directly the dependence of the natural frequency on the nonlocal elasticity, surface elasticity, residual surface stress, shear deformation and rotatory inertia, avoiding the complicated numerical computation.

FAST DENSE MATRIX METHOD FOR THE SOLUTION OF INTEGRAL EQUATIONS OF THE SECOND KIND

We present a fast algorithm based on polynomial interpolation to approximate matrices arising from the discretization of second-kind integral equations where the kernel function is either smooth, non-oscillatory and possessing only a finite number of singularities or a product of such function with a highly oscillatory coefficient function. Contrast to wavelet-like approximations, ourapproximation matrix is not sparse. However, the approximation can be construced in O(n) operations and requires O(n) storage, where n is the number of quadrature points used in the discretization. Moreover, the matrix-vector multiplication cost is of order O(nlogn). Thus our scheme is well suitable for conjugate gradient type methods. Our numerical results indicate that the algorithm is very accurate and stable for high degree polynomial interpolation.

Frequency equations of nonlocal elastic micro/nanobeams with the consideration of the surface effects

A nonlocal elastic micro/nanobeam is theoretically modeled with the consideration of the surface elasticity, the residual surface stress, and the rotatory inertia,in which the nonlocal and surface effects are considered. Three types of boundary conditions, i.e., hinged-hinged, clamped-clamped, and clamped-hinged ends, are examined. For a hinged-hinged beam, an exact and explicit natural frequency equation is derived based on the established mathematical model. The Fredholm integral equation is adopted to deduce the approximate fundamental frequency equations for the clamped-clamped and clamped-hinged beams. In sum, the explicit frequency equations for the micro/nanobeam under three types of boundary conditions are proposed to reveal the dependence of the natural frequency on the effects of the nonlocal elasticity, the surface elasticity, the residual surface stress, and the rotatory inertia, providing a more convenient means in comparison with numerical computations.
