An Approximate Solution for Boundary Value Problems in Structural Engineering and Fluid Mechanics

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 deflecti...
