in this paper, a new spectral-iterative method is employed to give approximate solutions of fractional logistic differential equation. this approach is based on combination of two different methods, i.e. the iterative method cite{35} and the spectral method. the method reduces the differential equation to systems of linear algebraic equations and then the resulting systems are solved by a numer...

the purpose of this study is to implement a new modification of the variational iteration method (h-s-vim), which is a combination of spectral method and variational iteration method for heat transfer problems with high nonlinearity order. the merit of this method is that it does not require the solution of any linear or nonlinear system of equations unlike spectral method. furthermore the prop...

it is well-known that dam-reservoir interaction has significant effects on the response of dams to the earthquakes. this phenomenon should be considered more exactly in the seismic design of dams with a rational and reliable dynamic analysis method. in this research, seismic analysis of the dam-reservoir is studied as a wave propagation problem by using legendre spectral element method (sem). t...
