β¦ Synopsis
In this paper, axisymmetric flow of two-dimensional incompressible fluids is studied. The Optimal Homotopy Asymptotic Method (OHAM) is applied to derive a solution of the reduced fourth-order nonlinear boundary value problem. For comparison, the same problem is also solved by the Perturbation Method (PM), the Homotopy Perturbation Method (HPM) [3] and the Homotopy Analysis Method (HAM) [4]. OHAM is parameter free and provides better accuracy at lower order of approximation. Moreover we can easily adjust and control the convergence region. As a result it is concluded that the new technique, OHAM, shows fast convergence, simplicity of application and efficiency.

A new analytic approximate technique for addressing nonlinear problems, namely the Optimal Homotopy Asymptotic Method (OHAM), is proposed and used in an application to the steady flow of a fourth-grade fluid. This approach does not depend upon any small/large parameters. This method provides us with
Mathematically, the solution of the nonlinear equations of load flow problems may result in multiple solutions. Conventional methods may fail to find all the multiple solutions if the initial guess values are not appropriately located within the convergency region. To overcome this difficulty, the h
In this paper Jeffery-Hamel flow has been studied and its nonlinear ordinary differential equation has been solved through homotopy analysis method (HAM). The obtained solution in comparison with the numerical ones represents a remarkable accuracy. The results also indicate that HAM can provide us w
