VIM-Pade technique for solving nonlinear and delay initial value problems

In this work, we employ a combination of variational iteration method (VIM) and Pade approximation method, called the VIM-Pade technique, to solve some nonlin- ear initial value problems and a delay differential equation (DDE). Some examples are provided to illustrate the capability and reliability of the technique. The ob- tained results by using the VIM are compared to the results of this technique. This comparison shows that VIM-Pade technique is more effective than VIM and yields faster convergence compared to the VIM.
