Abstract In this paper, we discuss the superconvergence of “interpolated” collocation solutions for weakly singular Volterra integral equations second kind. Based on solution $$u_h$$ u h , two different interpolation postprocessing approximations higher accuracy: $$I_{2...

Volterra series have been in the engineering literature for some time now, and yet there have been few attempts to measure Volterra kernels. This paper discusses techniques for measuring the Volterra kernels of weakly nonlinear systems. We introduce a new quick method for measuring the second Volterra kernel which is analogous to pseudo-noise testing of a linear device. To illustrate the discus...

We consider a fractional order viscoelasticity problem modelled by power-law type stress relaxation function. This viscoelastic is Volterra integral equation of the second kind with weakly singular kernel where convolution corresponds to differentiation/integration. use spatial finite element method and difference scheme in time. Due weak singularity, integration time managed approximately line...
