TOUCHARD POLYNOMIALS APPROACH FOR SOLVING NON- LINEAR FREDHOLM INTEGRO- DIFFERENTIAL EQUATION OF SECOND TYPE

Abstract

A numerical approach to solve Non- linear Fredholm integro- differential (NLFID) equation of the 1st order and 2nd type has been proposed. The approach was based upon Touchard polynomials. The non-linear Fredholm integro- differential equation was changed into a system of non- linear algebraic equations and solved using Newton repeating approach. The proposed approach was evaluated by displaying three numerical problems, and the approximate numerical solutions were compared with exact solution and four methods in the literature. MATLAB R2018b was used to perform all calculations and graphs.
