in this paper, the bernstein polynomials are used to approximate the solutions of linear integral equations with multiple time lags (iemtl) through expansion methods (collocation method, partition method, galerkin method). the method is discussed in detail and illustrated by solving some numerical examples. comparison between the exact and approximated results obtained from these methods is...

Continuous and discrete variations in material properties lead to substantial difficulties for most mesh-based methods for modeling and analysis of physical fields. The meshfree method described in this paper relies on distance fields to boundaries and to material features in order to represent variations of material properties as well as to satisfy prescribed boundary conditions. The method is...

In this article we proposed three explicit Improved Runge-Kutta (IRK) methods for solving first-order ordinary differential equations. These methods are two-step in nature and require lower number of stages compared to the classical RungeKutta method. Therefore the new scheme is computationally more efficient at achieving the same order of local accuracy. The order conditions of the new methods...

In this paper, with the aid of Maple, the (G ′ /G) and (1/G ′ )-expansion methods are applied to determine the exact solutions of (N+1)-dimensional generalized Boussinesq equation and (N+1)-dimensional sine-cosine-Gordon equation.These equations play a very important role in mathematical physics and engineering sciences. This methods are more powerful and will be used in further works to establ...

this paper presents a probabilistic confidence-interval based method for optimal placement of shunt capacitors in distribution networks by considering probabilistic characteristics of loads. the main objective function are reducing loss and improving the voltage profile. backward forward sweep method has been employed to obtain the power flow results in distribution system. in addition, integer...

The nuclear many-body problem for medium-mass systems is commonly addressed using wave-function expansion methods that build upon a second-quantized representation of operators with respect to chosen computational basis. While various options the basis are available, perturbatively constructed natural orbitals recently have been shown lead significant improvement in applications yielding faster...
