In this paper, a new approach for solving the system of fractional integro-differential equation with weakly singular kernels is introduced. The method based on class symmetric orthogonal polynomials called shifted sixth-kind Chebyshev polynomials. First, operational matrices are constructed, and after that, described. This reduces equations (WSFIDEs) by collocation into algebraic equations. Th...

In this paper, a linear Chebyshev pseudospectral method (LCPM) is proposed to solve the nonlinear optimal control problems (OCPs) with hard terminal constraints and unspecified final time, which uses collocation scheme quasi-linearization. First, Taylor expansion around differential equations of system used obtain set perturbation equations. Second, first-order necessary conditions for OCPs the...

Bratu's problem, which is the nonlinear eigenvalue equation Au + 2 exp(u)= 0 with u = 0 on the walls of the unit square and 2 as the eigenvalue, is used to develop several themes on applications of Chebyshev pseudospectral methods. The first is the importance of symmett:v: because of invariance under the C 4 rotation group and parity in both x and y, one can slash the size of the basis set by a...

A method for computing highly accurate numerical solutions of 1D convection–diffusion equations is proposed. In this method, the equation is first discretized with respect to the spatial variable, transforming the original problem into a set of ordinary differential equations, and then the resulting system is integrated in time by the fourth-order Runge–Kutta method. Spatial discretization is d...

The analysis and solution of wave equations with absorbing boundary conditions by using a related first order hyperbolic system has become increasingly popular in recent years. At variance with several methods which rely on this transformation, we propose an alternative method in which such hyperbolic system is not used. The method consists of approximation of spatial derivatives by the Chebysh...

We study the numerical solutions to semi-infinite-domain two-point boundary value problems and initial value problems. A smooth, strictly monotonic transformation is used to map the semiinfinite domain x ∈ 0,∞ onto a half-open interval t ∈ −1, 1 . The resulting finite-domain twopoint boundary value problem is transcribed to a system of algebraic equations using ChebyshevGauss CG collocation, wh...

Linear stability analysis of a dielectric fluid confined in a cylindrical annulus of infinite length is performed under microgravity conditions. A radial temperature gradient and a high alternating electric field imposed over the gap induce an effective gravity that can lead to a thermal convection even in the absence of the terrestrial gravity. The linearized governing equations are discretize...

This paper is devoted to investigating the numerical solution for a class of fractional diffusion-wave equations with a variable coefficient where the fractional derivatives are described in the Caputo sense. The approach is based on the collocation technique where the shifted Chebyshev polynomials in time and the sinc functions in space are utilized, respectively. The problem is reduced to the...

A new computational scheme using Chebyshev polynomials is proposed for the numerical solution of parametrically excited nonlinear systems. The state vector and the periodic coefficients are expanded in Chebyshev polynomials and an integral equation suitable for a Picard-type iteration is formulated. A Chebyshev collocation is applied to the integral with the nonlinearities reducing the problem ...
