Cover Story: We present a new family of optimal eighth order convergent iterative methods for finding multiple roots of nonlinear equations with known multiplicity. Since, root finding iterative methods have wide applications in many fields of science and engineering. So, the numerical performance and efficiency of the proposed methods is demonstrated by applying the new methods for some real life models from Life Science, Engineering and Physics. The dynamical performance of these methods is also analyzed through basins of attraction which proves their good behavior in terms of dependence on the initial estimations. View this paper.
