A New Method for Approximate Solutions of Some Nonlinear Equations: Residual Power Series Method

Abstract

In this work, a powerful iterative method called residual power series method is introduced to obtain approximate solutions of nonlinear time-dependent generalized Fitzhugh-Nagumo equation with time-dependent coefficients and Sharma-Tasso-Olver equation subjected to certain initial conditions. The consequences show that this method is efficient and convenient, and can be applied to a large sort of problems. The approximate solutions are compared with the known exact solutions. © The Author(s) 2016.
