Abstract

In this work, the Adomian decomposition method is used to find the solution to a one-dimensional quasi-linear parabolic partial differential equation with a time-dependent unknown function. A wide class of physical phenomena is modelled by non-classical parabolic initial-boundary value problems. Thus the theoretical behaviour and numerical approximation of these problems have been active areas of research. The decomposition procedure first proposed by the American mathematician G. Adomian (1923–1996) is useful for obtaining both exact solutions to, and numerical approximations of, various kinds of linear and nonlinear problem. The Adomian decomposition method, which accurately computes the series solution, is of great interest in science and engineering. It provides a solution as a convergent series with components that can be elegantly computed. Sufficient conditions for convergence and stability of the approximate solution are given and the results of numerical experiments are presented.
