Abstract

In this work, we present some semi-analytical techniques namely Differential Transform Method (DTM), Adomian Decomposition Method (ADM) and Homotopy Perturbation Method (HPM) for the solution of differential equations. The equations considered include initial value problems and boundary value problems. The results indicated that DTM is easy to apply but requires transformation, while ADM does not need any transformation except the calculation of Adomian polynomials. In addition, it was demonstrated that HPM involves perturbation and more computations. The results obtained converged rapidly to the exact solution.
