Solving an integral equation (with MathCAD)

$

Hi everyone,

 

I would like to know if there is a way in MathCAD to solve such an equation:

Where (unfortunately ) Sa(w,x) is known and G(w) is unknown. All other parameters can be considered known.

The equation comes from a book about Eartquake Engineeering, and gives a possible relationship between Response Spectrum and Power Spectrum, together with Fourier Spectrum (less common) they are the type of spectra commonly used in earthquake engineering.

 

So the unknown function G (in my problem the power spectrum) would appear at the same time under integral and outside of it.  Schematically it would be something like:

with F(w) known (but not a simple analytical function, it would have to be a splined interpolation, see small example on the left in the first picture above) and X(w) unknown.

 

If, as I believe, there is no MathCAD way, I would be grateful for some hints to known numerical methods to solve the problem... my calculus lessons are a little dated

 

Thanks a lot in advance

Claudio
