Yousefi AJNA2014213 10.12691/ajna-2-1-3 2013 11 06 2013 12 19 2014 01 03 In this paper, we applied He's variational iteration method (VIM) to solve nonlinear porous media equations. The main advantage of this method is the flexibility to give approximate solutions to nonlinear problems without linearization or discretization. The results show that this method is simple and effective.
