Abstract

A Sinc collocation method for numerical solution of Volterra-Fredholm integral equations of the second kind is developed by incorporating a variable transformation of double exponential order into the Sinc function expansion technique. The derived Sinc collocation formula is used to convert a Volterra-Fredholm integral equation defined on a finite interval into a set of algebraic equations. Numerical examples are presented to show the rapid convergence and exceptional accuracy of the method.
