ABSTRACT: In this paper, we presented an initial value approach for solving singularly perturbed two point boundary value problems with the boundary layer at one end (left or right). By employing asymptotic power series expansion, the given singularly perturbed two-point boundary value problem is replaced by two first order initial value problems. To demonstrate the applicability of the present method three linear and two nonlinear problems with left end boundary layer are considered. It is observed that the present method approximates the exact solution very well.
