The purpose of this paper is to employ an alternative approach to reconstruct the standard variational iteration algorithm II proposed by He, including Lagrange multiplier, and to give a simpler formulation of Adomian decomposition and modified Adomian decomposition method in terms of newly proposed variational iteration method-II (VIM). Through careful investigation of the earlier variational ...

the purpose of this study is to demonstrate the potential of imperialist competitivealgorithm (ica) for solving blasius dierential equation. this algorithm is inspiredby competition mechanism among imperialists and colonies and has demonstrated excellentcapabilities such as simplicity, accuracy, faster convergence and better global optimumachievement in contrast to other evolutionary algorithms...

The variational iteration method is employed to solve conservative oscillator containing complicated nonlinearities. In order to expand the nonlinear terms into truncated Fourier series, an approach of undetermined coefficient is proposed. Numerical examples shows the feasibility and efficiency of the variational iteration method as well as the presented technique for Fourier series expansion. ...

reduced differential transform method (rdtm) is applied to various wave equations. to assessthe accuracy of the solutions, we compare the results with the exact solutions and variational iteration method.the results reveal that the rdtm is very effective, convenient and quite accurate to systems of nonlinearequations.
