Chebyshev polynomial solution of nonlinear integral equations

In the current work, the Chebyshev collocation method is adopted to find an approximate solution for nonlinear integral equations. Properties of the Chebyshev polynomials and operational matrix are used in the integral equation of a system consisting of nonlinear algebraic equations with the unknown Chebyshev coefficients. Numerical examples are presented to illustrate the method and results are discussed. (C) 2011 The Franklin Institute. Published by Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
