A NEW APPROACH FOR SOLVING INITIAL AND BOUNDARY VALUE PROBLEMS OF BRATU-TYPE.

One of the newest analytical methods to solve nonlinear equations is Variational Iteration Method-II which is an accurate and a rapid convergence method in finding the approximate solution for nonlinear equations. In these papers, VIM-II is implemented to solve the initial and boundary value problems of Bratu-type which are widely applicable in fuel ignition of the combustion theory and heat transfer. Several examples are given to confirm the efficiency and the accuracy of the proposed algorithm. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
