Compact finite difference scheme is applied for a partial integro-differential equation with a weakly singular kernel. The product trapezoidal method is applied for discretization of the integral term. The order of accuracy in space and time is , where . Stability and convergence in  norm are discussed through energy method. Numerical examples are provided to confirm the theoretical prediction ...

Majority of the hodograph transform solutions of the one-dimensional nonlinear shallow-water wave equations are obtained through integral transform techniques. This approach, however, might involve evaluation of elliptic integrals, which are highly singular. Here, we couple the hodograph transform approach with the classical eigenfunction expansion method rather than integral transform techniqu...

A wavelet Galerkin finite-element method is proposed by combining the wavelet analysis with traditional finite-element method to analyze wave propagation phenomena in fluid-saturated porous medium. The scaling functions of Daubechies wavelets are considered as the interpolation basis functions to replace the polynomial functions, and then the wavelet element is constructed. In order to overcome...

The Dunkl transform is an integral transform on R" which generalises the classical Fourier transform. On suitable function spaces, it establishes a natural correspondence between the action of multiplication operators on one hand and so-called Dunkl operators on the other. These are differential-difference operators, generalising the usual partial derivatives, which are associated with a finite...

An iteration method is described to solve one-dimensional, first-kind integral equations with finite integration limits and difference kernel, K(x − x ′), that decays exponentially. The method relies on deriving via the Wiener–Hopf factorization and solving by suitable iterations in the Fourier complex plane a pair of integral relations, where each iteration accounts for all end point singulari...

This work deals with the interaction of P-waves between a moving central crack and a pair of outer cracks situated at the interface of an orthotropic layer and an elastic half-space. Initially, we considered a two-dimensional elastic wave equation in orthotropic medium. The Fourier transform has been applied to convert the basic problem to solve the set of four integral equations. These set of ...
