stefan problem with kinetics is reduced to a system of nonlinear volterra integral equations of second kind and newton's method is applied to linearize it. product integration solution of the linear form is found and sufficient conditions for convergence of the numerical method are given. an example is provided to illustrated the applicability of the method.

Because of their causal structure, (convolution) Volterra integral equations arise as models in a variety of real-world situations including rheological stress-strain analysis, population dynamics and insurance risk prediction. In such practical situations, often only an approximation for the kernel is available. Consequently, a key aspect in the analysis of such equations is estimating the eff...

In this paper, a special technique is studied by using the orthogonal Chebyshev polynomials to get approximate solutions for singular and hyper-singular integral equations of the first kind. A singular integral equation is converted to a system of algebraic equations based on using special properties of Chebyshev series. The error bounds are also stated for the regular part of approximate solut...
