Perturbation Method as a Powerful Tool to Solve Highly Nonlinear Problems: The Case of Gelfand’s Equation

Solving nonlinear ordinary differential equations is relevant because phenomena on the frontiers of modern sciences are often nonlinear in nature; therefore this article proposes Perturbation Method (PM) to solve nonlinear problems. As case study PM is employed to obtain a handy approximate solution...

Sumario:Solving nonlinear ordinary differential equations is relevant because phenomena on the frontiers of modern sciences are often nonlinear in nature; therefore this article proposes Perturbation Method (PM) to solve nonlinear problems. As case study PM is employed to obtain a handy approximate solution for Gelfand’s differential equation which governing combustible gas dynamics. Comparing figures between approximate and exact solutions, it is shown that PM method result extremely efficient.
