Abstract

In this paper, we apply the homotopy perturbation method for solving sixth-order boundary value problems. The analytical results of the equations have been obtained in terms of convergent series with easily computable components. Several examples are given to illustrate the efficiency and implementation of the method. Comparisons are made to confirm the accuracy of the proposed technique.
