ABSTRACT: In this paper, a user friendly algorithm based on the variational iteration method (VIM) is proposed to solve singular integral equations with generalized Abel’s kernel. It is observed that an approximate solutions yn(x) converges to the exact solution irrespective of the initial choice y0 (x). Illustrative numerical examples are given to demonstrate the efficiency and simplicity of the method in solving these types of singular integral equations.
