Application of variational iteration method to seepage flow derivatives in porous media using fractional calculus

F. A. Faisal, M. A. Bashir

Abstract :

In this paper the variational iteration method is implemented to give exact solutions for seepage flow derivatives in porous media. A correction functional for the fractional partial equation is well constructed by a general Lagrange multipliers which can be identified optimally via variational theory. Some examples are given and comparisons are made with the Adomian Decomposition Method (ADM).The comparisons show that the method is very effective ,convenient and overcome the difficulty arising in calculating Adomian polynomials.
