An efficient algorithm for solving multi-pantograph equation systems
Özet
In this paper, we present a numerical approach for solving the system of multi-pantograph equations with mixed conditions. This system is usually difficult to solve analytically. By expanding the approximate solutions by means of the Bessel functions of first kind with unknown coefficients, the proposed approach consists of reducing the problem to a linear algebraic equation system. The unknown coefficients of the Bessel functions of first kind are computed using the matrix operations of derivatives together with the collocation method. An error estimation is given. The reliability and efficiency of the proposed scheme are demonstrated by some numerical examples. All of the numerical computations have been performed on a computer with the aid of a program written in Matlab. (C) 2011 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
