Abstract

Integro-differential equations are encountered in such fields of study as mechanics, physics, chemistry, biophysics, astronomy, economic theory, and population dynamics. In rare cases the solution methods for differential and/or integral equations can be generalized to integro-differential equations; but in general, numerical methods have to be applied. Recent years have seen the development of a large number of methods applicable to integro-differential equations. The present study aims to compare these newer methods with the classical method of point collocation, which is one of the weighted residual methods. The method was applied to test problems chosen from the literature, both linear and nonlinear integro-differential equations, and was seen to give good results.
