Abstract

Two-dimensional orthogonal triangular functions (2D-TFs) are presented as a new set of basis functions for expanding 2D functions. Their properties are determined and an operational matrix for integration obtained. Furthermore, 2D-TFs are used to approximate solutions of nonlinear two-dimensional integral equations by a direct method. Since this approach does not need integration, all calculations can be easily implemented, and several advantages in reducing computational burdens arise. Finally, the efficiency of this method will be shown by comparison with some numerical results.
