Improved variational iteration method for solving a class of nonlinear Fredholm integral equations (Q2321009): Difference between revisions

The authors develop an efficient numerical method that is based on a combination of the variational method and the spectral collocation method in order to solve a class of non-linear Fredholm integral equations. Their method has the advantage of being (i) easy to implement, (ii) fast in computational time, and (iii) spectrally accurate. Moreover, there is neither the need of calculating Adomian's polynomials nor Lagrange's multiplier values. Additionally, the authors provide a variety of numerical results to show the validity and the efficiency of their method as well as the spectral accuracy.
