A family of high order product integration methods for an integral equation of Lighthill. (English) Zbl 0653.65094

M. J. Lighthill [Proc. R. Soc., Lond. Ser. A 202, 359-377 (1950; Zbl 0038.115)] has derived a nonlinear singular Volterra integral equation to describe the temperature distribution of the surface of a projectile moving through a laminar boundary layer at high Mach numbers. This paper presents high order product integration methods for its numerical solution and analyzes their convergence. Numerical results are given.
