Abstract. The evolution of nuclear spin magnetization during a radiofrequency pulse in the absence of relaxation or coupling interactions can be described by three Euler angles. The Euler angles in turn can be obtained from the solution of a Riccati differential equation; however, analytic solutions exist only for rectangular and chirp pulses. The Homotopy Analysis Method is used to obtain new approximate solutions to the Riccati equation for shaped radiofrequency pulses in NMR spectroscopy. The results of even relatively low orders of approximation are highly accurate and can be calculated very efficiently. The Homotopy Analysis Method is powerful and flexible and is likely to have other applications in theoretical magnetic resonance.

Abstract. The evolution of nuclear spin magnetization during a radiofrequency pulse in the absence of relaxation or coupling interactions can be described by three Euler angles. The Euler angles, in turn, can be obtained from the solution of a Riccati differential equation; however, analytic solutions exist only for rectangular and hyperbolic-secant pulses. The homotopy analysis method is used to obtain new approximate solutions to the Riccati equation for shaped radiofrequency pulses in nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy. The results of even relatively low orders of approximation are highly accurate and can be calculated very efficiently. The results are extended in a second application of the homotopy analysis method to represent relaxation as a perturbation of the magnetization trajectory calculated in the absence of relaxation. The homotopy analysis method is powerful and flexible and is likely to have other applications in magnetic resonance.

AbstractIn this paper, homotopy analysis method (HAM) and variational iteration method (VIM) are utilized to derive the approximate solutions of the Tricomi equation. Afterwards, the HAM is optimized to accelerate the convergence of the series solution by minimizing its square residual error at any order of the approximation. It is found that effect of the optimal values of auxiliary parameter on the convergence of the series solution is not negligible. Furthermore, the present results are found to agree well with those obtained through a closed-form equation available in the literature. To conclude, it is seen that the two are effective to achieve the solution of the partial differential equations.

The reliability of the homotopy analysis method (HAM) and reduction in the size of the computational work give this method a wider applicability. In this paper, HAM has been successfully applied to find the approximate solutions of Caputo fractional Volterra-Fredholm integro-differential equations. Also, the behavior of the solution can be formally determined by analytical approximation. Moreover, the study proves the existence and uniqueness results and the convergence of the solution. This paper concludes with an example to demonstrate the validity and applicability of the proposed technique.

A powerful analytic technique for nonlinear problems, the homotopy analysis method (HAM), is employed to give analytic solutions of power-law fluids of second grade. For the so-called secondorder power-law fluids, the explicit analytic solutions are given by recursive formulas with constant coefficients. Also, for the real power-law index in a quite large range an analytic approach is proposed. It is demonstrated that the approximate solution agrees well with the finite difference solution. This provides further evidence that the homotopy analysis method is a powerful tool for finding excellent approximations to nonlinear equations of the power-law fluids of second grade.
