This article contributes to a balanced space–time spectral collocation method for solving nonlinear time‐fractional Burgers equations with given initial‐boundary conditions. Most of existing approximate methods for solving partial differential equations are unbalanced, since they have used a low order scheme such as finite difference methods for integrating the temporal variable and a high order numerical framework such as spectral Galerkin (or meshless) method for discretization of space variables. So in the current paper, our suggested scheme is balanced in both time and space variables. Due to the non‐smoothness of solutions of time‐fractional Burgers equations, we apply efficient basis functions as the fractional Lagrange functions for interpolating time variable. By collocating the main equation and the initial‐boundary conditions together with the implementation of the corresponding operational matrices of spatial and fractional temporal variables, the assumed model is transformed into the associated system of nonlinear algebraic equations, which can be solved via efficient iterative solvers such as the Levenberg–Marquardt method. Also, we fully analyze the convergence of method. Moreover, we consider several test problems for examining the suggested scheme that confirms its high accuracy and low computational cost with respect to recent numerical methods in the literature.

In this paper, The Levenberg-Marquardt method is used in order to solve the inverse heat conduction problem. One-dimensional formulation of heat conduction problem was used. The direct problem was solved with finite-volumes by using an implicit discretization in time. Simulated measurements are obtained from the solution of the direct Problem at the sensor location. Results obtained in this inverse problem will be justified based on the numerical experiments. The results show that the speed of convergence is considerably fast and The Levenberg-Marquardt method is an accurate and stable method to determine the strength of the heat source in the inverse heat conduction problems.

This article deals with a numerical approach based on the symmetric space-time Chebyshev spectral collocation method for solving different types of Burgers equations with Dirichlet boundary conditions. In this method, the variables of the equation are first approximated by interpolating polynomials and then discretized at the Chebyshev–Gauss–Lobatto points. Thus, we get a system of algebraic equations whose solution is the set of unknown coefficients of the approximate solution of the main problem. We investigate the convergence of the suggested numerical scheme and compare the proposed method with several recent approaches through examining some test problems.
