Flow passage design and analysis procedures employing a TAYLOR series expansion across the flow field were first suggested as far back as 1908. With very few exceptions the early work addressed only the problem of symmetrical convergent-divergent passages. A generalization and an extension of the approach permits it to be used for the design of arbitrary cascade passages in subsonic, supersonic, or mixed-flow regimes. The method will give fast, realistic solutions in situations where shock-free flow is meaningful, and where the cascade gap-chord ratio is not excessive. It assumes inviscid, irrotational flow and employs a fourth-order TAYLOR series expansion across the cascade passage. Numerous examples are given, with comparisons with experimental data and other analytic solutions.

In this paper, we investigate an analytical solution of a class of nonlinear fractional integro-differential equation base on a generalized fractional power series expansion. The fractional derivatives are described in the conformable's type. The new approach is a modified form of the well-known Taylor series expansion. The illustrative examples are presented to demonstrate the accuracy and effectiveness of the proposed method

It is known that power series expansion of certain functions such as sech⁡(x) diverges beyond a finite radius of convergence. We present here an iterative power series expansion (IPS) to obtain a power series representation of sech⁡(x) that is convergent for all x. The convergent series is a sum of the Taylor series of sech⁡(x) and a complementary series that cancels the divergence of the Taylor series for x≥π/2. The method is general and can be applied to other functions known to have finite radius of convergence, such as 1/(1+x2). A straightforward application of this method is to solve analytically nonlinear differential equations, which we also illustrate here. The method provides also a robust and very efficient numerical algorithm for solving nonlinear differential equations numerically. A detailed comparison with the fourth-order Runge-Kutta method and extensive analysis of the behavior of the error and CPU time are performed.
