Abstract

In this paper we adopt the Adomian Decomposition Method (ADM) for approximating solutions of linear and nonlinear diffusion (parabolic) equations. The solution is calculated in the form of a series with easily computable components. The series solutions of the differential equations considered by the method in this work converge to the exact solutions which illustrate how effective the ADM is in solving such problems.

Keywords: Nonlinear parabolic equations; Diffusion

    In this section, we demonstrate the main algorithm of ADM for linear and nonlinear parabolic equations with initial conditions, we consider the equation

      Recently a great deal of interest has been focused on the applications of Adomians decomposition method

      u(x,0)

      (2.2)

      to solve a wide variety of stochastic and deterministic problems. Adomians gold is to find a method to unify linear and nonlinear, ordinary and partial differential equations for solving initial and boundary value problems. Afrouzi and Khademloo [6].

      Where, Nu is the nonlinear term. We are looking for a solution satisfying equation (2.1) under condition (2.2). The decomposition method consists of approximating the solution of (2.1) as an infinite series.

      Various physical systems can be described by linear and nonlinear parabolic equations. These linear and nonlinear models, as well as their solutions are of fundamental importance for applied sciences.

      Our objective in this paper is the desire to obtain analytic solutions to such linear and nonlinear parabolic equations.

      The decomposition method yields rapidly convergent series solutions by using a few iterations for both linear and nonlinear deterministic and stochastic equations. The advantage of this method is that it provides a direct scheme for solving the problem without the need for
