Numerical solution of nonlinear fractional-order Volterra integro-differential equations by SCW

Fractional calculus is an extension of derivatives and integrals to non-integer orders and has been widely used to model scientific and engineering problems. In this paper, we describe the fractional derivative in the Caputo sense and give the second kind Chebyshev wavelet (SCW) operational matrix of fractional integration. Then based on above results we propose the SCW operational matrix method to solve a kind of nonlinear fractional-order Volterra integro-differential equations. The main characteristic of this approach is that it reduces the integro-differential equations into a nonlinear system of algebraic equations. Thus, it can simplify the problem of fractional order equation solving. The obtained numerical results indicate that the proposed method is efficient and accurate for this kind equations.     

Inverse problem for a nonlinear Benney–Luke type integro-differential equations with degenerate kernel

We consider the problem on the unique solvability of the inverse problem for a nonlinear partial Benney–Luke type integro-differential equation of the fourth order with a degenerate kernel. We modify the degenerate kernelmethod which has been designed for Fredholm integral equations of the second kind to apply to the case of the above-mentioned equation. We exploit the Fouriermethod of separation of variables. By means of designations, the Benney–Luke type integro-differential equation is reduced to a system of algebraic equations. Using an additional condition, we obtain the countable system of nonlinear integral equations with respect to the main unknown function. We employ the method of successive approximations together with the contraction mapping principle. Finally, the restore function is defined.     

A novel numerical method and its convergence for nonlinear delay Volterra integro-differential equations

In this paper, we suggest a convergent numerical method for solving nonlinear delay Volterra integro-differential equations. First, we convert the problem into a continuous-time optimization problem and then use a shifted pseudospectral method to discrete the problem. Having solved the last problem, we can achieve the pointwise and continuous approximate solutions for the main delay Volterra integro-differential equations. Here, we analyze the convergence of the method and solve some numerical examples to show the efficiency of the method.     

Numerical solutions of systems of nonlinear integro-differential equations by Homotopy-perturbation method

In this study, the numerical solutions of a system of two nonlinear integro-differential equations, which describes biological species living together, are derived employing the well-known Homotopy-perturbation method. The approximate solutions are in excellent agreement with those obtained by the Adomian decomposition method. Furthermore, we present an analytical approximate solution for a more general form of the system of nonlinear integro-differential equations. The numerical result indicates that the proposed method is straightforward to implement, efficient and accurate for solving nonlinear integro-differential equations.     

Smooth solution of partial integro-differential equations using radial basis functions

In this work, we present the method based on radial basis functions to solve partial integro-differential equations. We focus on the parabolic type of integro-differential equations as the most common forms including the ``\emph{memory}'' of the systems. We propose to apply the collocation scheme using radial basis functions to approximate the solutions of partial integro-differential equations. Due to the presented technique, system of linear or nonlinear equations is made instead of primary problem. The method is efficient because the rate of convergence of collocation method based on radial basis functions is exponential. Some numerical examples and investigation of the experimental results show the applicability and accuracy of the method.     

Numerical Solution of Arbitrary-Order Ordinary Differential and Integro-Differential Equations with Separated Boundary Conditions Using Optimal Control Technique

In this paper, a new method for solving arbitrary order ordinary differential equations and integro-differential equations of Fredholm and Volterra kind is presented. In the proposed method, these equations with separated boundary conditions are converted to a parametric optimization problem subject to algebraic constraints. Finally, control and state variables will be approximated by a Chebychev series. In this method, a new idea has been used, which offers us the ability of applying the mentioned method for almost all kinds of ordinary differential and integro-differential equations with different types of boundary conditions. The accuracy and efficiency of the proposed numerical technique have been illustrated by solving some test problems.

Finally, the results are applied to study singularly perturbed boundary value problem to a nonlinear vector fourth-order differential equation. The existence of solution and its asymptotic estimation can be obtained conveniently.

Shape Optimal Design Problem with Convective and Radiative Heat Transfer: Analysis and Implementation

We present a study of an optimal design problem for a coupled system, governed by a steady-state potential flow equation and a thermal equation taking into account radiative phenomena with multiple reflections. The state equation is a nonlinear integro-differential system. We seek to minimize a cost function, depending on the temperature, with respect to the domain of the equations. First, we consider an optimal design problem in an abstract framework and, with the help of the classical adjoint state method, give an expression of the cost function differential. Then, we apply this result in the two-dimensional case to the nonlinear integro-differential system considered. We prove the differentiability of the cost function, introduce the adjoint state equation, and give an expression of its exact differential. Then, we discretize the equations by a finite-element method and use a gradient-type algorithm to decrease the cost function. We present numerical results as applied to the automotive industry.     

解非线性方程的自动调节阻尼法

解非线性方程组的一般方法是将其线性化,形成各种形式的迭代程序进行数值近似计算.对于复杂强非线性问题,在迭代过程中往往不易收敛,甚至数值失稳而发散.不能满足工程要求.常规的牛顿法及改进的牛顿法均未彻底解决这一问题,因而使得复杂强非线性问题的数值模拟计算受到了限制.本文提出一种新的方法---自动调节阻尼法,是对带阻尼因子的牛顿法的进一步改进.引进阻尼因子向量,在迭代过程中,通过判断与调整,不断地自动调节阻尼因子向量,引用有效收敛系数与加速系数,改善对赋初值的要求,加速求解的迭代过程,保证了复杂强非线性方程求解的稳定性.采用这一新的方法,已成功地数值模拟了飞机中的一些复杂的传热问题,可进一步推广用于非线性流动、传热、结构动力响应等各种复杂强非线性的工程问题的数值模拟计算.

Fractional-Order Legendre Functions and Their Application to Solve Fractional Optimal Control of Systems Described by Integro-differential Equations

In this paper, we introduce a set of functions called fractional-order Legendre functions (FLFs) to obtain the numerical solution of optimal control problems subject to the linear and nonlinear fractional integro-differential equations. We consider the properties of these functions to construct the operational matrix of the fractional integration. Also, we achieved a general formulation for operational matrix of multiplication of these functions to solve the nonlinear problems for the first time. Then by using these matrices the mentioned fractional optimal control problem is reduced to a system of algebraic equations. In fact the functions of the problem are approximated by fractional-order Legendre functions with unknown coefficients in the constraint equations, performance index and conditions. Thus, a fractional optimal control problem converts to an optimization problem, which can then be solved numerically. The convergence of the method is discussed and finally, some numerical examples are presented to show the efficiency and accuracy of the method.

Two numerical examples are studied to demonstrate the accuracy of the present method. The present work shows the validity and great potential of the reproducing kernel Hilbert space method for solving linear and nonlinear integro-differential equations of fractional order.
