In this paper, an aproximate analytical method called the differential transform method (DTM) is used as a tool to give approximate solutions of nonlinear oscillators with fractional nonlinearites. The differential transformation method is described in a nuthsell. DTM can simply be applied to linear or nonlinear problems and reduces the required computational effort. The proposed scheme is base...

In this study, a simple and accurate solution for the temperature distribution of convective-radiative straight rectangular fins with temperature-dependent thermal conductivity is presented using an analytical method called the Differential Transformation Method (DTM). The governing differential equation for the temperature distribution in present problem contains two nonlinear terms, one due t...

In this paper, heat and mass transfer in the unsteady squeezing flow between parallel plates is analyzed using a perturbation-iteration algorithm. The similarity transformation is used to transform the governing partial differential equations into ordinary differential equations, before being solved. The solutions of the velocity, temperature and concentration are derived and sketched to explai...

In this work, analytical solutions are provided to the nonlinear equations arising in thermal and flow-induced vibration in fluid-conveying structures using Galerkin-differential transformation method with cosine aftertreatment technique. From the analysis, it was established that increase of the length and aspect ratio of the fluid-conveying structures result in decrease the nonlinear vibratio...

The various industrial, biological and engineering applications of flow of squeezing flow of fluid between parallel plates have been the impetus for the continued interest and generation renewed interests on the subject. As a part of the renewed interests, this paper presents the study of axisymmetric magnetohydrodynamic squeezing flow of nanofluid in porous media under the influence of slip bo...

In this paper, free convection flow and heat transfer of nanofluids of differently-shaped nano-sized particles over a vertical plate at very low and high Prandtl numbers are analyzed.  The governing systems of nonlinear partial differential equations of the flow and heat transfer processes are converted to systems of nonlinear ordinary differential equation through similarity transformations.
