We consider a Fredholm integral equation of the second kind in L1([a, b],C), with a weakly singular kernel. Sufficient conditions are given for the existence and uniqueness of the solution. We adapt the product integration method proposed in C0([a, b],C) to apply it in L1([a, b],C), and discretize the equation. To improve the accuracy of the approximate solution, we use different iterative refi...

An analysis is presented of the torsional vibration of a rigid disc embedded to the surface of a transversely isotropic elastic half space. By using Hankel transform the mixed boundary value problem transform into a dual integral equation, which then transform to a Fredholm integral equation. After reduction to a Fredholm’s integral equation of second kind, solutions to the problem are obtained...

A direct method for solving nonlinear two-dimensional Fredholm integral equations (FIE) of the second kind is presented. Using two-dimensional rationalized Haar (RH) functions, the numerical solution of these equations is reduced to solving a nonlinear system of algebraic equations. Numerical examples are presented to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.

In this paper, an effective numerical method is introduced for the treatment of nonlinear two-dimensional Volterra-Fredholm integro-differential equations. Here, we use the so-called two-dimensional block-pulse functions.First, the two-dimensional block-pulse operational matrix of integration and differentiation has been presented. Then, by using this matrices, the nonlinear two-dimensional Vol...

In this paper we reduce a free boundary problem from heat transfer to a weakly Singular Volterra  integral equation of the first kind. Since the first kind integral equation is ill posed, and an appropriate method for such ill posed problems is based on wavelets, then we apply the Chebyshev wavelets to solve the integral equation. Numerical implementation of the method is illustrated by two ben...
