This paper is devoted to introduce a novel method of the operational matrix of integration for Legendre wavelets in order to predict the thermal behavior of stratospheric balloons on float at high altitude in the stratosphere. Radiative and convective heat transfer models are also developed to calculate absorption and emission heat of the balloon film and lifting gas within the balloon. Thermal equilibrium equations (TEE) for the balloon system at daytime and nighttime are shown to predict the thermal behavior of stratospheric balloons. The properties of Legendre wavelets are used to reduce the TEE to a nonlinear system of algebraic equations which is solved by using a suitable numerical method. The approximations of the thermal behavior of the balloon film and lifting gas within the balloon are derived. The diurnal variations of the film and lifting gas temperature at float conditions are investigated, and the efficiency of the proposed method is also confirmed.

The time fractional subdiffusion equation (FSDE) as a class of anomalous diffusive systems has obtained by replacing the time derivative in ordinary diffusion by a fractional derivative of order 0<α<1. Since analytically solving this problem is often impossible, proposing numerical methods for its solution has practical importance. In this paper, an efficient and accurate Galerkin method based on the Legendre wavelets (LWs) is proposed for solving this equation. The time fractional derivatives are described in the Riemann–Liouville sense. To do this, we first transform the original subdiffusion problem into an equivalent problem with fractional derivatives in the Caputo sense. The LWs and their fractional operational matrix (FOM) of integration together with the Galerkin method are used to transform the problem under consideration into the corresponding linear system of algebraic equations, which can be simply solved to achieve the solution of the problem. The proposed method is very convenient for solving such problems, since the initial and boundary conditions are taken into account, automatically. Furthermore, the efficiency of the proposed method is shown for some concrete examples. The results reveal that the proposed method is very accurate and efficient.

The present paper employs a numerical method based on the improved block–pulse basis functions (IBPFs). This was mainly performed to resolve the Volterra–Fredholm integral equations of the second kind. Those equations are often simplified into a linear system of algebraic equations through the use of IBPFs in addition to the operational matrix of integration. Typically, the classical alterations have enhanced the time taken by the computer program to solve the system of algebraic equations. The current modification works perfectly and has improved the efficiency over the regular block–pulse basis functions (BPF). Additionally, the paper handles the uniqueness plus the convergence theorems of the solution. Numerical examples have been presented to illustrate the efficiency as well as the accuracy of the method. Furthermore, tables and graphs are used to show and confirm how the method is highly efficient.

In this study, we apply the pseudospectral method based on Müntz–Legendre wavelets to solve the multiorder fractional differential equations with Caputo fractional derivative. Using the operational matrix for the Caputo derivative operator and applying the Chebyshev and Legendre zeros, the problem is reduced to a system of linear algebraic equations. We illustrate the reliability, efficiency, and accuracy of the method by some numerical examples. We also compare the proposed method with others and show that the proposed method gives better results.

In this work, an efficient algorithm is proposed for solving the system of Volterra integral equations based on wavelet Galerkin method. This problem is reduced to a set of algebraic equations using the operational matrix of integration and wavelet transform matrix. For linear type, the computational effort decreases by thresholding. The convergence analysis of the proposed scheme has been investigated and it is shown that its convergence is of order O(2−Jr), where J is the refinement level and r is the multiplicity of multi-wavelets. Several numerical tests are provided to illustrate the ability and efficiency of the method.

Background: In this article, an efficient direct method has been proposed in order to solve physically significant variational problems. The proposed technique finds its basis in Bernstein polynomials multiwavelets (BPMWs). The mechanism of the proposed method is to transform the variational problem into an algebraic equation system through the use of BPMWs. Objective: Since the necessary condition of extremization consists of a differential equation that cannot be easily integrated in complex cases, an approximated numerical solution becomes a necessity. Our primary objective is to establish a wavelet based method for solving variational problems of physical interest. Besides being computationally more effective, the proposed approach yields relatively more accurate results than other comparable methods. The approach employs fewer basis elements, which in turn increases the simplicity, decreases the calculation time, and furnishes better results. Methods: An operational matrix of integration, which is based on the BPMWs, is presented. We substitute the approximated values of , unknown function and their derivative functions with BPMWs operational matrix of integration and BPMWs. On substituting the respective values in the given variational problem, it gets converted into a system of algebraic equations. The obtained system is further solved using the Lagrange multiplier. Results: The results obtained yield a greater degree of convergence as compared to other existing numerical methods. Numerical illustrations based on physical variational problems and the comparisons of outcomes with exact solutions demonstrate that the proposed method yields better efficiency, applicability, and accuracy. Conclusion: The proposed method gives better results than other comparable methods, even with the use of a fewer number of basis elements. The large order of matrices, such as 32, 64, and 512, obtained by using other available methods is far too high to achieve accuracy in results in comparison to the ones we obtain by using matrices of relatively lower orders, such as 7, 8 and 13, in the proposed method. This method can also be used for extremization functional occurring in electrical circuits and mechanical physical problems.

A collocation method based on the second kind Chebyshev wavelets is proposed for the numerical solution of eighth-order two-point boundary value problems (BVPs) and initial value problems (IVPs) in ordinary differential equations. The second kind Chebyshev wavelets operational matrix of integration is derived and used to transform the problem to a system of algebraic equations. The uniform convergence analysis and error estimation for the proposed method are given. Accuracy and efficiency of the suggested method are established through comparing with the existing quintic B-spline collocation method, homotopy asymptotic method, and modified decomposition method. Numerical results obtained by the present method are in good agreement with the exact solutions available in the literatures.

This paper introduces a new numerical approach to solving a system of fractional differential equations (FDEs) using the Legendre wavelet operational matrix method (LWOMM). We first formulated the operational matrix of fractional derivatives in some special conditions using some notable characteristics of Legendre wavelets and shifted Legendre polynomials. Then, the system of fractional differential equations was transformed into a system of algebraic equations by using these operational matrices. At the end of this paper, several examples are presented to illustrate the effectivity and correctness of the proposed approach. Comparing the methodology with several recognized methods demonstrates that the advantages of the Legendre wavelet operational matrix method are its accuracy and the understandability of the calculations.

Using this method, an operational matrix of integration based on the wavelet is established and the procedure for applying the matrix to solve the temperature and displacement are formulated. The results provide a theoretical basic for selecting coating thickness of thermal barrier coating materials in optimization design.
