In this paper, the homoto pyanalysis method
(HAM) is presented to solve some of engineering problems. The homotopy analysis
method is applied in obtaining exact solutions for equations of the type?Δ2=b(x,y) and ?Δ2u=b(x,y,u)?on an elliptical domain. Exact solutions are presented for several
examples involving to demon strate the applic ability and efficiency of HAM.
