摘要：
The modified decomposition method is applied for analytic treatment of nonlinear differential equations that appear on boundary layers in fluid mechanics. The modified method accelerates the rapid convergence of the series Solution. dramatically reduces the size of work. The obtained series solution is combined with the diagonal Pade approximants to handle the boundary condition at infinity. (c) 2005 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
