Numerical solution of certain Cauchy singular integral equations using a collocation scheme

[摘要] The present study is devoted to developing a computational collocation technique for solving the Cauchy singular integral equation of the second kind (CSIE-2). Although, several studies have investigated the numerical approximation solution of CSIEs, the strong singularity and accuracy of the numerical methods are still two important challenges for these integral equations. In this paper, we focus on the smooth transformation and implementation of Bessel basis polynomials (BBP). The reduction of the CSIEs-2 into a system of algebraic equations with the Gauss–Legendre collocation points simplifies this technique. The technique of performing numerical approximation of the solution is well presented and illustrated in the matrix form. Also, the convergence and error bound associated with the scheme are established. Finally, several experiments show the reliability and numerical efficiency of the proposed scheme in comparison with other methods.
