In this paper, we apply variational iteration method (VIM) and variational iteration method using Adomian's polynomials for solving nonlinear boundary value problems. The proposed iterative scheme finds the solution without any discretization, linearization, perturbation, or restrictive assumptions. Several examples are given to verify the accuracy and efficiency of the method. We have also considered an example where the proposed VIM is not reliable.

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to use the variational iteration method (VIM) for studying boundary value problems (BVPs) characterized with dual solutions. Design/methodology/approach The VIM proved to be practical for solving linear and nonlinear problems arising in scientific and engineering applications. In this work, the aim is to use the VIM for a reliable treatment of nonlinear boundary value problems characterized with dual solutions. Findings The VIM is shown to solve nonlinear BVPs, either linear or nonlinear. It is shown that the VIM solves these models without requiring restrictive assumptions and in a straightforward manner. The conclusions are justified by investigating many scientific models. Research limitations/implications The VIM provides convergent series solutions for linear and nonlinear equations in the same manner. Practical implications The VIM is practical and shows more power compared to existing techniques. Social implications The VIM handles linear and nonlinear models in the same manner. Originality/value This work highlights a reliable technique for solving nonlinear BVPs that possess dual solutions. This paper has shown the power of the VIM for handling BVPs.

Variational iteration method (VIM) is applied to solve linear and nonlinear boundary value problems with particular significance in structural engineering and fluid mechanics. These problems are used as mathematical models in viscoelastic and inelastic flows, deformation of beams, and plate deflection theory. Comparison is made between the exact solutions and the results of the variational iteration method (VIM). The results reveal that this method is very effective and simple, and that it yields the exact solutions. It was shown that this method can be used effectively for solving linear and nonlinear boundary value problems.

In this paper, application of variational iteration method has been successfully extended to obtain approximate solutions of some higher order boundary value problems. We emphasize the power of the method by testing three different mathematical models of distinct orders. The results are obtained by using only little iteration.  BIBECHANA 15 (2018) 37-42

We apply the variational iteration method using He's polynomials (VIMHP) for solving the fifth-order boundary value problems. The proposed method is an elegant combination of variational iteration and the homotopy perturbation methods and is mainly due to Ghorbani (2007). The suggested algorithm is quite efficient and is practically well suited for use in these problems. The proposed iterative scheme finds the solution without any discritization, linearization, or restrictive assumptions. Several examples are given to verify the reliability and efficiency of the method. The fact that the proposed technique solves nonlinear problems without using Adomian's polynomials can be considered as a clear advantage of this algorithm over the decomposition method.

We apply the modified variational iteration method (MVIM) for solving the singular and nonsingular initial and boundary value problems in this paper. The proposed modification is made by introducing Adomian's polynomials in the correct functional. The suggested algorithm is quite efficient and is practically well suited for use in such problems. The proposed iterative scheme finds the solution without any discretization, linearization, perturbation, or restrictive assumptions. Several examples are given to verify the efficiency and reliability of the suggested algorithm.
