About this article
Abstract
In this paper, Volterra Integro differential equations are solved using the Adomian decomposition method. The solutions are obtained in form of infinite series and compared to Runge-Kutta4 algorithm. The technique is described and illustrated with examples; numerical results are also presented graphically. The software used in this study is mathematica10.Keywords
- Volterra Integro differential equations
