Bessel polynomial solutions of high-order linear Volterra integro-differential equations

Abstract

In this study, a practical matrix method, which is based on collocation points, is presented to find approximate solutions of high-order linear Volterra integro-differential equations (VIDEs) under the mixed conditions in terms of Bessel polynomials. Numerical examples are included to demonstrate the validity and applicability of the technique and comparisons are made with the existing results. The results show the efficiency and accuracy of the present work. All of the numerical computations have been performed on the computer using a program written in MATLAB v7.6.0 (R2008a).
