Abstract:
An approximate method for solving Volterra’s population model for population growth of a species in a closed system is proposed. Volterra’s model is a nonlinear integro-differential equation, where the integral term represents the effect of toxin. The approach is based upon composite spectral functions approximations. The properties of composite spectral functions consisting of few terms of orthogonal functions are presented and are utilized to reduce the solution of the Volterra’s model to the solution of a system of algebraic equations. The method is easy to implement and yields very accurate result.
