A new approach for solving nonlinear Thomas-Fermi equation based on fractional order of rational Bessel functions

In this paper, the fractional order of rational Bessel functions collocation method (FRBC) to solve Thomas-Fermi equation which is defined in the semi-infinite domain and has singularity at $x = 0$ and its boundary condition occurs at infinity, have been introduced. We solve the problem on semi-infinite domain without any domain truncation or transformation of the domain of the problem to a finite domain. This approach at first, obtains a sequence of linear differential equations by using the quasilinearization method (QLM), then at each iteration solves it by FRBC method. To illustrate the reliability of this work, we compare the numerical results of the present method with some well-known results in other to show that the new method is accurate, efficient and applicable

Approximate Solution of Riccati Differential Equation via Modified Greens Decomposition Method

Riccati differential equations (RDEs) plays important role in the various fields of defence, physics, engineering, medical science, and mathematics. A new approach to find the numerical solution of a class of RDEs with quadratic nonlinearity is presented in this paper. In the process of solving the pre-mentioned class of RDEs, we used an ordered combination of Green’s function, Adomian’s polynomials, and Pade` approximation. This technique is named as green decomposition method with Pade` approximation (GDMP). Since, the most contemporary definition of Adomian polynomials has been used in GDMP. Therefore, a specific class of Adomian polynomials is used to advance GDMP to modified green decomposition method with Pade` approximation (MGDMP). Further, MGDMP is applied to solve some special RDEs, belonging to the considered class of RDEs, absolute error of the obtained solution is compared with Adomian decomposition method (ADM) and Laplace decomposition method with Pade` approximation (LADM-Pade`). As well, the impedance of the method emphasised with the comparative error tables of the exact solution and the associated solutions with respect to ADM, LADM-Pade`, and MGDMP. The observation from this comparative study exhibits that MGDMP provides an improved numerical solution in the given interval. In spite of this, generally, some of the particular RDEs (with variable coefficients) cannot be easily solved by some of the existing methods, such as LADM-Pade` or Homotopy perturbation methods. However, under some limitations, MGDMP can be successfully applied to solve such type of RDEs
