Abstract
This paper adopts the transcendental Bernstein series (TBS), a set of basis
functions based on the Bernstein polynomials (BP), for approximating analytical
functions. The TBS is more accurate than the BP method, particularly in
approximating functions including one or more transcendental terms. The numerical
results reveal also the applicability and higher computational efficiency of the new
approach.
