A NEW APPROACH TO SOLVE BLASIUS EQUATION USING PARAMETER IDENTIFICATION OF NONLINEAR FUNCTIONS BASED ON THE BEES ALGORITHM (BA)

In this paper, a new approach is introduced to solve Blasius equation using parameter identification of a nonlinear function which is used as approximation function. Bees Algorithm (BA) is applied in order to find the adjustable parameters of approximation function regarding minimizing a fitness function including these parameters (i.e. adjustable parameters). These parameters are determined how the approximation function has to satisfy the boundary conditions. In order to demonstrate the presented method, the obtained results are compared with another numerical method. Present method can be easily extended to solve a wide range of problems. Keywords—Bees Algorithm (BA); Approximate Solutions; Blasius Differential Equation.
