For random variables produced through the inverse transform method, approximate are introduced, which using approximations to a distribution’s cumulative distribution function. These designed be computationally inexpensive, and much cheaper than library functions exact within machine precision, thus highly suitable for use in Monte Carlo simulations. The approximation errors they introduce can ...

We present a collocation method to obtain the approximate solution of Troesch's problem which arises in the confinement of a plasma column by radiation pressure and applied physics. By using the Christov rational functions and collocation points, this method transforms Troesch's problem into a system of nonlinear algebraic equations. The rate of convergence is shown to be exponential. The numer...

In this paper, a suitable numerical method based on block pulse functions is introduced to approximate the Wiener integrals which the exact solution of them is not exist or it may be so hard to find their exact solutions. Furthermore, the error analysis of this method is given. Some numerical examples are provided which show that the approximation method has a good degree of accuracy. The main ...
