 Encyclopedia: Integral equation   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08) In mathematics, a differential equation is an equation in which the derivatives of a function appear as variables. Maxwells equations are the set of four equations, attributed to James Clerk Maxwell, that describe the behavior of both the electric and magnetic fields, as well as their interactions with matter. The most basic type of integral equation is a Fredholm equation of the first type: In mathematics, the Fredholm integral equation introduced by Ivar Fredholm gives rises to a Fredholm operator. www.nationmaster.com /encyclopedia/Integral-equation   (669 words)

 Integral Equations In their simplest form, integral equations are equations in one variable (say t) that involve an integral over a domain of another variable (s) of the product of a kernel function K(s,t) and another (unknown) function (f(s)). Integral equations are solved by replacing the integral by a numerical integration or quadrature formula. The integral equation is then reduced to a linear equation with the values of f at the quadrature points being unknown at the outset. www.numerical-methods.com /inteq.htm   (444 words)

 6.3 Integral Equations for the Population Activity The integral equation (6.44) that we have derived in Section 6.2 via integration of the density equations turns out to be a specific instance of the general framework presented in this section.

The difference between the numerical solution of the Wilson-Cowan integral equation (6.76) and that of the coarse-grained equation (6.86) is shown in Fig. diwww.epfl.ch /~gerstner/SPNM/node47.html   (2296 words)

 Integral Equation Techniques in Computational Electromagnetics   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08) The equations are usually discretized using the method of moments in which an unknown physical quantity is expanded in terms of a set of known expansion functions. The fringe integral equation is not affected by this, since the current peak is treated with analytical techniques and the method of moments is used to solve for the well-behaved fringe current only. The fringe integral equation technique was recently used to model the radiation pattern of the Danish Rømer satellite and its crossed-slot antenna. www.emi.dtu.dk /research/afg/research/computional_electromagnetics   (826 words)

 Integral Equation Formulation for Ground-Water Flow   (Site not responding.

 Integral Equation Methods In electromagnetic integral equation methods the original boundary value problems for Maxwell's equations are reformulated as integral equations over the boundary interfaces of homogeneous domains.

 Variational Boundary Integral Equation The non-regularised variational equation in (3.100) is used as the basis for the Galerkin BIEM.

Actually, FMM formulations with regularised integral equations have been tested in section 3.3 with collocation and were shown to introduce more moments than formulations without regularisation. gspsun1.gee.kyoto-u.ac.jp /yoshida/doctoral_thesis/node53.html   (274 words)

 Prof. Weile's Research Differential equation methods solve for the actual fields, whereas integral equation methods solve for electric currents. Moreover, if the object under study is homogeneous, the unknown current in the integral equation exists only on the surface, as opposed to filling the whole volume of the structure. Differential equation methods, on the other hand, lead to sparse systems of equations (i.e., most of the coefficients in the equations are zero) but they always require volumetric meshing and special approximate boundary conditions to terminate the simulation. www.eecis.udel.edu /~weile/research.html   (827 words)

 Boundary Element Methods In general, a method can be derived by replacing the integrals in an integral equation by a quadrature formula or by a weighted residual method such as the Galerkin method.

 IP6 Fast Integral Equation Methods for Composite Materials   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08) Integral equation methods are natural candidates for the numerical solution of such problems, since they discretize the boundary alone and can achieve a high order of accuracy. Recent fast algorithms, such as the Fast Multipole Method, allow for the dense N by N matrices which arise from integral equation discretizations to be applied in O(N) operations. The speaker will describe several fast integral equation methods which allow for large-scale calculations (hundreds of thousands of interface points) to be carried out with ease on modest scientific workstations. www.siam.org /meetings/archives/ms97/ip6.htm   (153 words)
