Abstract

The present paper discusses the closed-form solution of the one dimensional Heat equation with Nonlocal condition by Variational Iteration Method (VIM). The advantage of this method is to overcome the difficulty of calculation of Adomian's polynomials in the Adomian's decomposition method. Variational Iteration Method has been widely used to handle linear and nonlinear models. Numerical results are provided to show the accuracy of the proposed method.
