Wazwaz, Abdul-Majid A new method for solving singular initial value problems in the second-order ordinary differential equations. (English) Zbl 1030.34004 Appl. Math. Comput. 128, No. 1, 45-57 (2002). Summary: Singular initial value problems, linear and nonlinear, homogeneous and nonhomogeneous, are investigated by using the Adomian decomposition method. The solutions are constructed in the form of a convergent series. A new general formula is established. The approach is illustrated with few examples.
