Approximate solution of Urysohn integral equations using the Adomian decomposition method.

We apply Adomian decomposition method (ADM) for obtaining approximate series solution of Urysohn integral equations. The ADM provides a direct recursive scheme for solving such problems approximately. The approximations of the solution are obtained in the form of series with easily calculable components. Furthermore, we also discuss the convergence and error analysis of the ADM. Moreover, three numerical examples are included to demonstrate the accuracy and applicability of the method.

Approximate series solution of nonlinear singular boundary value problems arising in physiology.

We introduce an efficient recursive scheme based on Adomian decomposition method (ADM) for solving nonlinear singular boundary value problems. This approach is based on a modification of the ADM; here we use all the boundary conditions to derive an integral equation before establishing the recursive scheme for the solution components. In fact, we develop the recursive scheme without any undetermined coefficients while computing the solution components. Unlike the classical ADM, the proposed method avoids solving a sequence of nonlinear algebraic or transcendental equations for the undetermined coefficients. The approximate solution is obtained in the form of series with easily calculable components. The uniqueness of the solution is discussed. The convergence and error analysis of the proposed method are also established. The accuracy and reliability of the proposed method are examined by four numerical examples.
