Collocation Method Based on Bernoulli Polynomial and Shifted Chebychev for Solving the Bratu Equation

Abstract

In this work, Bernoulli-collocation method is proposed for solving nonlinear Bratu's type equations. The operational matrix of derivative of Bernoulli is introduced. The matrix together with the collocation method are then utilized to reduce the problem into a system of nonlinear algebraic equations. Also, a reliable approach for solving this nonlinear system is discussed. Numerical results and comparisons with other existing methods provided in the literature are made.
