In this work, we apply the reproducing kernel method for investigating Blasiusequations with two different boundary conditions in semi-infinite domains.Convergence analysis of the reproducing kernel method is given. The numericalapproximations are presented and compared with some other techniques,Keywords: Howarth’s numerical solution and Runge-Kutta Fehlberg method.
