Although perturbation techniques are widely applied to analyze nonlinear problems in science and engineering, they are however so strongly dependent on small parameters appeared in equations under consideration that they are restricted only to weakly nonlinear problems. For strongly nonlinear problems which don’t contain any small parameters, perturbation techniques are invalid. So, it seems ne...

In this paper, we conduct a comparative study between the homotopy perturbation method (HPM) and Adomian’s decomposition method (ADM) for analytic treatment of nonlinear Volterra integral equations, and we show that the HPM with a specific convex homotopy is equivalent to the ADM for these type of equations.
