Solution of Nonlinear Integro Differential Equations by Two-Step Adomian Decomposition Method (TSAM) ()
1. Introduction
In 1999, Wazwaz [1] presented a powerful modification to the “Adomian Decomposition Method” (ADM) that accelerated the rapid convergence of the series solution as compared with the standard Adomian method [2] . The modified technique has been shown to be computationally efficient while applied to several important differential and integral equations in the research. In all cases of applied fields, excellent performance is obtained that may lead to a widespread application in many applied sciences. In addition, the modified technique may give the exact solution for nonlinear equation without any need of the so-called Adomian polynomials [3] .
In spite of the fact that the “Modified Decomposition Method” of wazwaz has shown to be computationally efficient in some applications, the criterion of separating the function
into two appropriate parts
and
, and when the function
includes only one term, this case remains unsolved. Furthermore, the “Modified Decomposition Method” does not always minimize the required size of calculations, and often needs more computation than the common Adomian method. In 2005, X.G. Luo [4] proposed the “Two-Step Adomian Decomposition Method” (TSADM) as a modification to the common “Adomian Decomposition Method”. The TSADM may provide the solution by using a single iteration only and reduces the quantity of computation compared with the common “Adomian Decomposition Method” and the modified method. The two-Step decomposition method perhaps also produces the exact solution without any requirement of the polynomials of Adomian. In 2006, X.G. Lou et al. [5] showed by experimentation that the TSADM extended to solve systems of inhomogeneous equations. Several researchers applied this modification for solving a huge class of problems, such as: in 2008, D.N. Khan, et al. [6] used the TSADM to solve the heat equation, in 2015, M. Al-Mazmumy, et al. [7] used this modification for nonlinear partial differential equation and in 2013, H. O. Bakodah [8] used the TSADM for solving the nonlinear Abel’s Integral equation. In this paper, we use the (TSADM) to obtain the solutions of the integro-differential equations and the system of integro differential equations. Wide classes of nonlinear integro-differential equations, both Volterra as well as Fredholm, can be solved by the (TSADM).This paper is organized as follows. In Section 2, it is shown the principles of the standard Adomian method and the analysis of the proposed method is given. In Section 3, a comparative study between TSADM and previous methods is illustrated with the help of several examples. Concluding remarks follow in Section 4.
2. Description of the Method (TSADM)
We consider the Integro-differentil equation of the form
(1)
with initial condotions 
Where
is the second derivative of the unknown function
that
will be determined,
are the kernels of the integro differential equations,
are an analytic function, a and
are the limits of integration may be both constants or mixed. And
are linear and nonlinear term, respectively.
Let
, so
, applying
to both sides of (1), and using
initial conditions, we obtain
(2)
For nonlinear equations, the nonlinear operator
is usually represented by an infinite series of the Adomian polynomials
(3)
The standard Adomian method defines the solution
by the series
(4)
where the components
are usually determined recursively by:
(5)
The main ideas of the proposed “Two-Step Adomian Decomposition Method” are:
(1) Applying the inverse operator
to
, and using the given conditions it is obtained:
(6)
where the function
represents the terms arising from using the given conditions. To achieve the objectives of this method, it is set:
(7)
where
are the terms arising from integrating f and from using the given conditions. Based on this, the function uo is defined as:
(8)
where
,
,
. Then, by substitution, verify that
satisfies the integro differential equation (1) and the given conditions. Once the exact solution is obtained, the process is ended, otherwise, go to the following step two.
(2) We set
and continue with the standard Adomian recursive relation
(9)
Compared to the common “Adomian Decomposition Method” and the “Modified Decomposition Method”, it is clear that the “Two-Step Decomposition Method” may produce the solution by using only one iteration. It is worthy to note that the Procedure of verification in the first step can be larg effective in many cases. This can be note through the following examples. Further, the “Two-Step Decomposition Method” avoids the difficulties arising in the modified method. Also the number of the terms in
, namely
, is small in many practical problems.

4. Conclusion
In this paper, we have applied two-step Adomian Decomposition Method (TSAM) to obtain the solutions of nonlinear integro-differential equations. Some examples have been discussed as illustrations. In this work, we show that TSADM is convenient to solve integro-differential equations and reduce the size of calculations compared to the standard Adomian decomposition method and modified decomposition method. This modification also avoids computing Adomian polynomials. The TSADM produce the solution by using only two iterations, if compared with the common Adomian method and the modified method. Moreover, the TSADM overcomes the difficulties arising in the modified decomposition method.
