The purpose of this study is to investigate viscoelastic properties for the constitutive equation in terms of distributed-order derivatives.

The authors considered the steady oscillatory shear flow between two parallel plates (one is fixed and another oscillates in its own plane), and then examined the effects of different forms of the order-weight functions.

The constitutive equation in terms of distributed-order derivatives can characterize viscoelastic properties. The order-weight functions can effectively describe viscoelasticity.

Model the viscoelastic constitutive equation in terms of distributed-order derivatives, where order-weight functions can select to respond viscoelastic properties.

The purpose of this paper is to first deduce a new form of the exact analytic solution of the well-known nonlinear second-order differential equation subject to a set of mixed nonlinear Robin and Neumann boundary conditions that model the thin film flows of fourth-grade fluids, and second to compare the approximate analytic solutions by the Adomian decomposition method (ADM) with the new exact analytic solution to validate its accuracy for parametric simulations of the thin film fluid flows, even for more complex models of non-Newtonian fluids in industrial applications.

The approach to calculating a new form of the exact analytic solution of thin film fluid flows rests upon a sequence of transformations including the modification of the classic technique due to Scipione del Ferro and Niccolò Fontana Tartaglia. Next the authors establish a lemma that justifies the new expression of the exact analytic solution for thin film fluid flows of fourth-grade fluids. Second, the authors apply a modification of the systematic ADM to quickly and easily calculate the sequence of analytic approximate solutions for this strongly nonlinear model of thin film flow of fourth-grade fluids. The ADM has been previously demonstrated to be eminently practical with widespread applicability to frontier problems arising in scientific and engineering applications. Herein, the authors seek to establish the relative merits of the ADM in the context of the thin film flows of fourth-grade fluids.

The ADM is shown to closely agree with the new expression of the exact analytic solution. The authors have calculated the error remainder functions and the maximal error remainder parameters in the error analysis to corroborate the solutions. The error analysis demonstrates the rapid rate of convergence and that we can approximate the exact solution as closely as we please; furthermore the rate of convergence is shown to be approximately exponential, and thus only a low-stage approximation will be adequate for engineering simulations as previously documented in the literature.

This paper presents an accurate work for solving thin film flows of fourth-grade fluids. The authors have compared the approximate analytic solutions by the ADM with the new expression of the exact analytic solution for this strongly nonlinear model. The authors commend this technique for more complex thin film fluid flow models.

The purpose of this paper is to propose a new modification of the Adomian decomposition method for resolution of higher‐order inhomogeneous nonlinear initial value problems.

First the authors review the standard Adomian decomposition scheme and the Adomian polynomials for solving nonlinear differential equations. Next, the advantages of Duan's new algorithms and subroutines for fast generation of the Adomian polynomials to high orders are discussed. Then algorithms are considered for the solution of a sequence of first‐, second‐, third‐ and fourth‐order inhomogeneous nonlinear initial value problems with constant system coefficients by the new modified recursion scheme in order to derive a systematic algorithm for the general case of higher‐order inhomogeneous nonlinear initial value problems.

The authors investigate seven expository examples of inhomogeneous nonlinear initial value problems: the exact solution was known in advance, in order to demonstrate the rapid convergence of the new approach, including first‐ through sixth‐order derivatives and quadratic, cubic, quartic and exponential nonlinear terms in the solution and a sextic nonlinearity in the first‐order derivative. The key difference between the various modified recursion schemes is the choice of the initial solution component, using different choices to partition and delay the subsequent parts through the recursion steps. The authors' new approach extends this concept.

The new modified decomposition method provides a significant advantage for computing the solution's Taylor expansion series, both systematically and rapidly, as demonstrated in the various expository examples.

The purpose of this paper is concerned with a reliable treatment of the classical Stephan problem. The Adomian decomposition method (ADM) is used to carry out the analysis, Moreover, the authors extend the work to examine the Stefan problem with variable latent heat. The study confirms the accuracy and efficiency of the employed method.

The new technique, as presented in this paper in extending the applicability of the ADM, has been shown to be very efficient for solving the Stefan problem.

The Stefan problem with variable latent heat was examined as well. The ADM was effectively used for analytic treatment of the Stefan problem with and without variable latent heat.

The paper presents a new solution algorithm for the Stefan problem.
