Numerical solution to the van der Pol equation with fractional damping

In this study, the van der Pol equation with fractional damping is investigated and the numerical solution of the problem is obtained by means of the variational iteration method. For this purpose, specific α values are considered and the emerged fractional differential equations are solved approximately. Furthermore, these solutions are compared and the relations between them are figured out.
