The improved residual power series method for the solutions of higher-order linear and nonlinear boundary value problems

IRPSM is the extended form of RPSM that gives an approximate solution to boundary value problems without requiring an exact solution. This method creates a truncated series for the determination of the missing initial conditions. The present study is conducted to evaluate semi-numerical solutions to differential equations using the Improved Residual Power Series Method (IRPSM). Our main objective is to check whether the proposed scheme is efficient for solving such equations or not. The solution of differential equations has been approximated using truncated residual power series. The method is used to solve differential equations for higher-order linear and non-linear boundary value problems. Absolute errors for the solved problems are calculated to ensure accuracy. It is also compared with some known methods, like the Differential Transform Method (DTM) and the Homotopy Perturbation Method (HPM). For the calculations, Mathematica 12.0 software is used. The computed results are compared to the exact solutions as well as the available results in the literature. The results showed that the results obtained by IRPSM are closely related to the exact solution when compared to the DTM and HPM results.
