Legendre wavelets operational method for the numerical solutions of nonlinear Volterra integro-differential equations system

Abstract

In this paper, Legendre wavelet method is developed to approximate the solutions of system of nonlinear Volterra integro-differential equations. The properties of Legendre wavelets are first presented. The properties of Legendre wavelets are used to reduce the system of integral equations to a system of algebraic equations which can be solved numerically by Newton’s method. Also, the results obtained by present method have been compared with that of by B-spline wavelet method. Illustrative examples have been discussed to demonstrate the validity and applicability of the present method.
