1. **State the problem:** Solve the integral differential equation
$$y''(x) - e^x \int_0^x e^{-t} y''(t) \, dt = y(x) + u_1(x)$$
with initial conditions $$y(0) = 0$$ and $$y'(0) = 0$$.
2. **Rewrite the integral term:** Define
$$I(x) = \int_0^x e^{-t} y''(t) \, dt$$
so the equation becomes
$$y''(x) - e^x I(x) = y(x) + u_1(x).$$
3. **Differentiate $I(x)$:** By the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus,
$$I'(x) = e^{-x} y''(x).$$
4. **Express $y''(x)$ from $I'(x)$:**
$$y''(x) = e^x I'(x).$$
5. **Substitute $y''(x)$ back into the original equation:**
$$e^x I'(x) - e^x I(x) = y(x) + u_1(x).$$
Divide both sides by $e^x$:
$$\cancel{e^x} I'(x) - \cancel{e^x} I(x) = \frac{y(x) + u_1(x)}{\cancel{e^x}}$$
which simplifies to
$$I'(x) - I(x) = e^{-x} y(x) + e^{-x} u_1(x).$$
6. **Recall $I(x)$ definition:**
$$I(x) = \int_0^x e^{-t} y''(t) \, dt.$$
7. **Relate $I(x)$ to $y'(x)$:** Integrate by parts or note that
$$I(x) = e^{-x} y'(x) - y'(0) - \int_0^x (-e^{-t}) y'(t) \, dt = e^{-x} y'(x)$$
since $y'(0) = 0$ and the integral term cancels by differentiation.
8. **Use $I(x) = e^{-x} y'(x)$ in the differential equation:**
$$I'(x) = -e^{-x} y'(x) + e^{-x} y''(x) = -I(x) + e^{-x} y''(x).$$
From step 5,
$$I'(x) - I(x) = e^{-x} y(x) + e^{-x} u_1(x).$$
Substitute $I'(x)$:
$$-I(x) + e^{-x} y''(x) - I(x) = e^{-x} y(x) + e^{-x} u_1(x)$$
which simplifies to
$$e^{-x} y''(x) - 2 I(x) = e^{-x} y(x) + e^{-x} u_1(x).$$
Multiply both sides by $e^x$:
$$y''(x) - 2 e^x I(x) = y(x) + u_1(x).$$
Recall from step 2 original equation:
$$y''(x) - e^x I(x) = y(x) + u_1(x).$$
This implies
$$y''(x) - 2 e^x I(x) = y''(x) - e^x I(x)$$
which means
$$e^x I(x) = 0 \implies I(x) = 0.$$
9. **Since $I(x) = 0$, from step 7:**
$$e^{-x} y'(x) = 0 \implies y'(x) = 0.$$
10. **Integrate $y'(x) = 0$:**
$$y(x) = C,$$
and from initial condition $y(0) = 0$, we get
$$C = 0,$$
so
$$y(x) = 0.$$
11. **Check the solution:** Substitute $y(x) = 0$ into the original equation:
$$y''(x) - e^x \int_0^x e^{-t} y''(t) dt = 0 - e^x \cdot 0 = 0,$$
and right side
$$y(x) + u_1(x) = 0 + u_1(x) = u_1(x).$$
For equality, $u_1(x)$ must be zero or the problem requires $u_1(x) = 0$ for this solution.
**Final answer:**
$$\boxed{y(x) = 0}$$
if $u_1(x) = 0$.
If $u_1(x) \neq 0$, the problem requires further information or methods to solve.
