Abstract

A numerical technique for the solution of singular integral equations of the second kind is presented. The technique extends the piecewise quadratic method used by Gerasoulis [6], to solve singular integral equations of the first kind. Quadrature formulae are derived in terms of infinite series and are used to reduce the integral equation to a set of linear algebraic equations. Two numerical examples are given, and the results are compared with exact solutions.
