a numerical method for solving variational problems is presented in this paper. the method is based upon hybrid of hartley functions approximations. the properties of hybrid functions which are the combinations of block-pulse functions and hartley functions are first presented. the operational matrix of integration is then utilized to reduce the variational problems to the solution of algebraic...

this paper presents an efficient modification of the variational iteration method for solvingboundary value problems using the chebyshev polynomials. the proposed method can be applied to linearand nonlinear models. the scheme is tested for some examples and the obtained results demonstrate thereliability and efficiency of the proposed method.

the purpose of this study is to implement a new modification of the variational iteration method (h-s-vim), which is a combination of spectral method and variational iteration method for heat transfer problems with high nonlinearity order. the merit of this method is that it does not require the solution of any linear or nonlinear system of equations unlike spectral method. furthermore the prop...

In this paper, we present a comparative study between the modified variational iteration method (MVIM) and a hybrid of Fourier transform and variational iteration method (FTVIM). The study outlines the efficiencyand convergence of the two methods. The analysis is illustrated by investigating four singular partial differential equations with variable coefficients. The solution of singular partia...

In this paper, we consider the VHPM to obtain exact solution to Gas Dynamics equation.
