In this article, the steady two-dimensional laminar flow of a viscous incompressible fluid in a semi-porous channel in the presence of a transverse magnetic field is considered. The homotopy perturbation method (HPM) and variational iteration method (VIM) are employed to compute an approximation to the solution of the system of differential equations governing on the problem. Velocity profiles, streamlines, and the other parameters of flow are determined. Comparisons are made between the numerical method (NM) and the results of our methods. The results reveal that these methods are very effective, simple, and can be applied to other nonlinear problems.

AbstractIn this article, two powerful analytical methods called the variational iteration method (VIM) and the variational homotopy perturbation method (VHPM) are introduced to obtain the exact and the numerical solutions of the (2+1)-dimensional Korteweg-de Vries-Burgers (KdVB) equation and the (1+1)-dimensional Sharma-Tasso-Olver equation. The main objective of the present article is to propose alternative methods of solutions, which avoid linearization and physical unrealistic assumptions. The results show that these methods are very efficient, convenient and can be applied to a large class of nonlinear problems.

We propose and apply coupling of the variational iteration method (VIM) and homotopy perturbation method (HPM) to solve nonlinear mixed Volterra-Fredholm integrodifferential equations (VFIDE). In this approach, we use a new formula called variational homotopy perturbation method (VHPM) and variational accelerated homotopy perturbation method (VAHPM). This approach is based on the form of He’s polynomials and on a new form of He’s polynomials. We discuss the convergence of the technique. Some numerical examples are introduced to verify the efficiency of this technique.

The flow of a viscous incompressible fluid between two parallel plates due to the normal motion of the plates for two cases, the two-dimensional flow case and the axisymmetric flow case, is investigated. The governing nonlinear equations and their associated boundary conditions are transformed into a highly non-linear ordinary differential equation. The series solution of the problem is obtained by utilizing the homotopy perturbation method (HPM). Graphical results are presented to investigate the influence of the squeeze number on the velocity, skin friction, and pressure gradient. The validity of our solutions is verified by the numerical results obtained by shooting method, coupled with Runge-Kutta scheme.

In this paper, variational iteration method (VIM) and homotopy-perturbation method (HPM) are implemented for solving analytically the nonlinear Fornberg–Whitham (FW) equation. VIM is used to construct correction functionals using general Lagrange multipliers identified optimally via the variational theory HPM converts a difficult problem into simple one, which can be easily handled. Furthermore, the solutions obtained are compared with the corresponding exact solution to show the applicability accuracy and efficiency of the present methods in solving a large class of linear and nonlinear problems arising in different fields of science and engineering.

This article introduces two well-known computational techniques for solving the time-fractional system of nonlinear equations of unsteady flow of a polytropic gas. The methods suggested are the modified forms of the variational iteration method and the homotopy perturbation method by the Elzaki transformation. Furthermore, an illustrative scheme is introduced to verify the accuracy of the available techniques. A graphical representation of the exact and derived results is presented to show the reliability of the suggested approaches. It is also shown that the findings of the current methodology are in close harmony with the exact solutions. The comparative solution analysis via graphs also represents the higher reliability and accuracy of the current techniques.
