An approximation to the solution of telegraph equation by variational iteration method

The variational iteration method (VIM) has been applied to solve many functional equations. In this article, this method is applied to obtain an approximate solution for the Telegraph equation. Some examples are presented to show the ability of the proposed method. The results of applying VIM are exactly the same as those obtained by Adomian decomposition method. It seems less computation is needed in proposed method.© 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Numer Methods Partial Differential Eq, 2009
