Numerical treatment of linear Volterra integro differential equations using variational iteration algorithm with collocation

Abstract

To numerically solve the linear Volterra integro-differential equation, this study employs fourth-kind Chebyshev polynomials and the variational iteration algorithm with collocation, which is a combination of the variational iteration strategy and collocation technique. By applying fourth-kind Chebyshev polynomials to the variational iteration method with collocation for solving Volterra integro-differential equations, mathematical problems with a broad range of multidisciplinary applications are addressed, and numerical techniques that produce more accurate and efficient results are developed. The recommended method is then used, and the fourth-kind Chebyshev polynomials generated for the given integro-differential equation serve as the trial functions for the approximation. As a result, the suggested method's significance probably goes beyond a particular equation or application, as it contributes to the larger field of mathematical modeling and numerical analysis. Research methods employing a variational iteration algorithm with collocation aim to provide general techniques that can be applied to a wide range of problems. Additionally, numerical examples were provided to highlight the applicability and dependability of the proposed methodology. The mathematical computations were carried out using the Maple 18 software.
