Abstract
In this article, we look at a class of two-point nonlinear boundary value problems and transform this into derivative-dependent Fredholm–Hammerstein integral equations, i.e., the integral equation, where the kernel is of Green’s type, and the nonlinear function inside the integral is dependent on the derivative. We obtain the error analysis by replacing all the integrals in the Galerkin method with numerical quadrature. We propose the discrete Galerkin and iterated discrete Galerkin methods by piecewise polynomials to obtain the convergence analysis of these derivative-dependent Fredholm–Hammerstein integral equations. By choosing the numerical quadrature rule appropriately, the convergence rates in Galerkin and iterated Galerkin methods are preserved. We show that the iterated discrete Galerkin method improves over the discrete Galerkin method in terms of the order of convergence. To demonstrate the theoretical results, several numerical examples are provided.
