Description
Summary:The main aim of the present work is to propose a new and simple algorithm for Volterra integral equation arising in demography, the study of viscoelastic materials, and in insurance mathematics through the renewal equation by using homotopy analysis transform method. The homotopy analysis transform method is an innovative adjustment in Laplace transform algorithm and makes the calculation much simpler. The solutions obtained by proposed method indicate that the approach is easy to implement and computationally very attractive. The beauty of the paper is coupling of two techniques. Finally, two numerical examples are given to show the accuracy and stability of this method.
