An analytic approximation to the solution of wave equation is studied. Wave equation is in radial form with indicated initial and boundary conditions, by variational iteration method it has been used to derive this approximation and some examples are presented to show the simplicity and efficiency of the method.

The paper presents simple computational algorithms for analyzing the lateral-torsional buckling of prismatic beams with rectangular cross-sections under bending action due to uniform and nonuniform loads by the Adomian decomposition method (ADM) and variational iteration method (VIM). Unlike the numerical techniques that lead to a discretization process, the proposed method allows us to derive the solution in terms of an analytical function for the problem considered. Although the governing equations of the problem appear as a system of two coupled variable coefficient ordinary differential equations, they reduce to a single equation for rectangular beams. The buckling loads for different loading conditions are computed, with the results for the simple beam compared with previous available results by the differential transformation method (DTM), variational iteration method (VIM) and finite element method (FEM) based on coupled governing equations. The results clearly show the efficiency and advantage of the present technique over those based on the coupled governing equations using the DTM and VIM in view of the number of terms required to obtain the convergent solution.
