Numerical Solution Of A Reaction-Diffusion System With Fast Reversible Reaction By Using Adomian’S Decomposition Method And He’S Variational Iteration Method, Ann J. Al-Sawoor Ph.D., Mohammed O. Al-Amr M.Sc. Dec 2012

Numerical Solution Of A Reaction-Diffusion System With Fast Reversible Reaction By Using Adomian’S Decomposition Method And He’S Variational Iteration Method, Ann J. Al-Sawoor Ph.D., Mohammed O. Al-Amr M.Sc.

Mohammed O. Al-Amr

In this paper, the approximate solution of a reaction-diffusion system with fast reversible reaction is obtained by using Adomian decomposition method (ADM) and variational iteration method (VIM) which are two powerful methods that were recently developed. The VIM requires the evaluation of the Lagrange multiplier, whereas ADM requires the evaluation of the Adomian polynomials. The behavior of the approximate solutions and the effects of different values of t are shown graphically.


Variational Iteration Method For Q-Difference Equations Of Second Order, Guo-Cheng Wu Jun 2012

Variational Iteration Method For Q-Difference Equations Of Second Order, Guo-Cheng Wu

G.C. Wu

Recently, Liu extended He's variational iteration method to strongly nonlinear q-difference equations. In this study, the iteration formula and the Lagrange multiplier are given in a more accurate way. The q-oscillation equation of second order is approximately solved to show the new Lagrange multiplier's validness.


Asymptotic Methods For Solitary Solutions And Compactons, Ji-Huan He Jan 2012

Asymptotic Methods For Solitary Solutions And Compactons, Ji-Huan He

Ji-Huan He

This review is an elementary introduction to some new asymptotic methods for the search for the solitary solutions of nonlinear differential equations, nonlinear differential-difference equations, and nonlinear fractional differential equations . Particular attention is paid throughout the paper to giving an intuitive grasp for the variational approach, the Hamiltonian approach, the variational iteration method, the homotopy perturbation method, the parameter-expansion method, the Yang-Laplace Transform, the Yang-Fourier transform, and ancient Chinese mathematics. Hamilton principle and variational principles are also emphasized. The reviewed asymptotic methods are easy to be followed for various applications. Some ideas on this review article are first appeared. …
