Abstract

The principal objective of this paper is to propose a numerical scheme to solve linear and nonlinear third-kind Volterra integral equations (VIEs). The method approximates the solution using the collocation method based on moving least squares (MLS) approximation. The suggested scheme is meshless, since it needs no background mesh or cell structures, and is thus independent of the geometry of the domain. The approach reduces the solution of third-kind VIEs to the solution of systems of algebraic equations. All integrals appearing in the approach are calculated approximately by the Gauss–Legendre integration formula. The convergence analysis of the proposed scheme has been conducted, and its performance has been tested through a series of numerical examples, demonstrating its effectiveness and applicability in comparison to the existing methods.
