In this work, the convection-diffusion integro-differential equation with a weakly singular kernel is discussed. The  Legendre spectral tau method is introduced for finding the unknown function. The proposed method is based on expanding the approximate solution as the elements of a shifted Legendre polynomials. We reduce the problem to a set of algebraic equations by using operational matrices....

in the present paper, we develop a modified pseudospectral scheme for solving an optimal control problem which is governed by a switched dynamical system. many real-world processes such as chemical processes, automotive systems and manufacturing processes can be modeled as such systems. for this purpose, we replace the problem with an alternative optimal control problem in which the switching t...

Abstract— A new polynomial method to solve Volterra–Fredholm Integral equations is presented in this work. The method is based upon Shifted Legendre Polynomials. The properties of Shifted Legendre Polynomials and together with Gaussian integration formula are presented and are utilized to reduce the computation of Volterra–Fredholm Integral equations to a system of algebraic equations. Some num...

Recently, the Legendre pseudospectral (PS) method migrated from theory to flight application onboard the International Space Station for performing a finite-horizon, zeropropellant maneuver. A small technical modification to the Legendre PS method is necessary to manage the limiting conditions at infinity for infinite-horizon optimal control problems. Motivated by these technicalities, the conc...

This paper considers the numerical simulation of incompressible viscous fluid flow in an infinite strip. A mixed spectral method is proposed using the Legendre approximation in one direction and the Legendre rational approximation in another direction. Numerical results demonstrate the efficiency of this approach. Some results on the mixed Legendre-Legendre rational approximation are establishe...

A new method is proposed for fast and low-complexity computation of exact 3D Legendre moments. The proposed method consists of three main steps. In the first step, the symmetry property is employed where the computational complexity is reduced by 87%. In the second step, exact values of 3D Legendre moments are obtained by mathematically integrating the Legendre polynomials over digital image vo...
