Combining Legendre's Polynomials and Genetic Algorithm in the Solution of Nonlinear Initial-Value Problems
This work develops a method for solving ordinary differential equations, that is, initial-value problems, with solutions approximated by using Legendre's polynomials. An iterative procedure for the adjustment of the polynomial coefficients is developed, based on the genetic algorithm. This proc...
