“…Starting from pioneering ideas going back to Inokuti-Sekine-Mura method [3], the variational iteration method was first proposed in later 1990s by He [4][5][6]. By recent years, this method has been extensively applied to various ODEs, integral equations, delay differential equations and fractional differential equations, two-point boundary value problems, oscillations, and stiff ODEs, notably, He [7,8], Wazwaz [9,10], Draganescu et al [11,12], Saadatmandi and Dehghan [13], Salkuyeh [14], Lu [15], Xu [16], Rafei et al [17], Darvishi et al [18], Tatari and Dehghan [19], Mamode [20], Saadati and Dehghan [21], Yu [22], Marinca et al [23], Yang and Dumitru [24], and Wu [25] to mention only a few. Recently, Zhao and Xiao [26] have applied this method for solving singular perturbation initial value problems.…”
