Abstract

The Variational Iteration Method (VIM) has proven to be a powerful technique for solving both ordinary and partial differential equations. However, its reliance on Lagrange multipliers for each type of equation has posed significant limitations, complicating its application and reducing its efficiency. This study introduces a Modified Variational Iteration Method (MVIM) that eliminates the need for Lagrange multipliers, addressing these challenges. The MVIM reformulates the correctional functional, simplifying the solution process and enhancing computational efficiency. The method is applied to both linear and nonlinear ordinary and partial differential equations, demonstrating its ability to provide accurate and fast-converging solutions. Numerical examples show that the MVIM outperforms traditional VIM in terms of computational time and convergence speed, and compares favourably with other methods such as the Adomian Decomposition Method (ADM) and New Iteration Method (NIM). The results highlight the potential of MVIM as a versatile and efficient tool for solving complex differential equations in a variety of scientific and engineering applications.
