in this paper, a new spectral-iterative method is employed to give approximate solutions of fractional logistic differential equation. this approach is based on combination of two different methods, i.e. the iterative method cite{35} and the spectral method. the method reduces the differential equation to systems of linear algebraic equations and then the resulting systems are solved by a numer...

I n this issue of Cancer, the French Immunotherapy Intergroup reports results of the PERCY Quattro trial, which compares medroxyprogesterone acetate (MPA), subcutaneous interferon-alpha (INF-a), subcutaneous interleukin-2 (IL-2 ), or a combination of the 2 cytokines for front-line treatment of patients with intermediate prognosis metastatic renal cell carcinoma (RCC). Between January 2000 and J...

in this paper, a numerical solution of an inverse non-dimensional heat conduction problem by spline method will be considered. the given heat conduction equation, the boundary condition, and the initial condition are presented in a dimensionless form. a set of temperature measurements at a single sensor location inside the heat conduction body is required. the result show that the proposed meth...

we introduce and discuss the homotopy perturbation method, the adomian decomposition method and the variational iteration method for solving the stefan problem with kinetics. then, we give an example of the stefan problem with  kinetics and solve it by these methods.
