In some cases, the truncated series solution of ADM is adequate only in a small region when the exact solution is not reached. To overcome the drawback, the Pade approximants, which have the advantage in turning the polynomials approximation into a rational function, are applied to the series solution to improve the accuracy and enlarge the convergence domain. By using the ADM-Pade technique, the soliton solutions of the Blaszak-Marciniak lattice are constructed with better accuracy and better convergence than by using the ADM alone. Numerical and figurative illustrations show that it is a promising tool for solving nonlinear problems.展开更多
