Abstract. In this paper, a system of generalized Abel integral equations has been solved numerically using Bernstein polynomials. A similar system arises in solving certain mixed boundary value problems of classical theory of elasticity. Keywords: System of generalized Abel integral equations; Bernstein polynomials. Mathematics Subject Classication 2010: 45E10
Introduction
Many interesting problems of mechanics and physics lead to an integral equation in which the kernel K(t, u) is of convolution type, that is K(t, u) = k(t u), where k is a certain function of single variable. A similar integral equation with weakly singular kernel named Abel integral equation appears in many branches of science and engineering. Usually, physical quantities accessible to measurement are quite often related to physically important but experimentally inaccessible ones by Abel integral equations. A system of generalized integral equations of Abel type were studied by Lowengrub[4] and Walton[9]. As stated in [9], certain mixed boundary value problems arising in the classical theory of elasticity reduce to the problem of determining functions 1 and 2 satisfying Abel type integral equations of the type, 1 x 2 (t) 1 (t) dt + a12 (x) dt = f1 (x) a11 (x) t ) x ) x (t 0 (x

where, x (0, 1), 0 < < 1 and aij (x) are continuous on [0,1]. Since only = 1, 2 occur in physical problems, we restrict our attention to these values only. Mandal et.al.[6], solved this problem analytically for the special case = 1, = 1/2, aij (x) = 1, using the idea of fractional calculus. Bernstein polynomials have been used in solving numerically partial dierential equations[1], integral equations of various types such as Fredhlom integral equations[5], Volterra integral equations[3], singular integral equations and integro-dierential equations[2] and Abel integral equations[7,8]. In this paper, we have developed a simple algorithm based on approximation of unknown functions in terms of Bernstein polynomials and thereby nd numerical solutions by converting and solving the generalized system into a system of linear equations for given fi (x)(i = 1, 2).
The Bernstein basis polynomials of degree n in the interval [0, 1] are dened by n i
There are (n + 1) nth degree Bernstein basis polynomials forming a basis for the linear space Vn consisting of all polynomials of degree less than or equal to n in R[x]-the ring of polynomials over the eld R. Any polynomial B(x) in Vn can be written as B(x) =
n i=0
ai Bi,n (x)
(2.2)
where ai s are constants. The Bernstein polynomials have the following properties: (i)Bi,n (0) = i0 and Bi,n (1) = in , where is the Kronecker delta function. (ii)Bi,n (t) has one root, each of multiplicity i and n i, at t = 0 and t = 1 respectively. (iii)Bi,n (t) 0 for t [0, 1] and Bi,n (1 t) = Bni,n (t) (iv) For i = 0, Bi,n has a unique local maximum in [0, 1] at t = i/n and the maximum ( ) n i nn (n i)ni value i i (v) The Bernstein polynomials form a partition of unity i.e. n Bi,n (t) = 1 i=0

Method of solution
For getting the approximate solution of (1.1), 1 (t) and 2 (t) are approximated in the Bernstein polynomial basis on [0, 1] as, 1 (t) 1 (t) =
n i=0
n i=0
bi Bi,n (t)
(3.1)
where ai and bi (i = 0, 1, 2, .......n) are unknown constants to be determined. Substituting (3.1) in (1.1), we obtain, a11 (x)
n i=0 n i=0
n i=0 n i=0
bi i (x) = f1 (x)
bi i (x) = f2 (x),
(3.2)
i (x) =
x
(t
We now put x = xj , j = 0, 1, 2..., n in (3.2), where xj s are chosen as suitable distinct points in (0, 1) such that 0 < x0 .... < xn < 1. Putting x = xj we obtain the linear systems n n a11 (xj ) ai ij + a12 (xj ) bi ij = f1 (xj ),
i=0 i=0 n i=0 n i=0
ai ij + a22 (xj )
bi ij = f2 (xj ),
(3.3)
ij = i (xj ) and ij = i (xj ) for i, j = 0, 1, ..., n. The linear systems (3.3) can be easily solved by any standard method for the unknown constants ai s and bi s provided of course the coecient matrix is nonsingular. It is emphasized that it is always possible to choose distinct points xj (0, 1)(j = 0, 1...., n) such that this is possible. The computed ai s and bi s are then used in (3.1) to obtain the approximate solutions 1 (t) and 2 (t) In the next section a number of illustrative examples are presented to demonstrate the simplicity of the method as well as accuracy of the numerical results. In all these examples we have chosen n = 8 and the errors, dened as Et = 1 (t) 1 (t) and E2 (t) = 2 (t)2 (t), are computed for dierent values of t [0, 1] and depicted graphically. Also we tabulated the approximate and exact solution for t = 0.0, 0.2, ......, 0.8, 1.0
