Boubaker operational matrix method for solving fractional weakly singular two-dimensional partial Volterra integral equation

Abstract

The aim of the present paper is to suggest a novel technique based on the operational matrix approach for solving a fractional weakly singular two-dimensional partial Volterra integral equation (FWS2DPVIE) using numerical methods. In this technique, Boubaker polynomials are used to create operational matrices. The technique consists of two major phases. In the first step, Boubaker polynomials are employed to generate operational matrices, which help in transforming the problems into systems of algebraic equations. In the second step, the algebraic equations are numerically solved.The suggested technique is also compared with existing approaches. The results show that the suggested technique outperforms its counterparts, demonstrating its superiority.
