The classical homotopy perturbation method proposed by J. H. He, Comput. Methods Appl. Mech. Eng.  178 , 257 (1999) is useful for obtaining the approximate solutions for a wide class of nonlinear problems in terms of series with easily calculable components. However, in some cases, it has been found that this method results in slowly convergent series. To overcome the shortcoming, we present a new reliable algorithm called the domain decomposition homotopy perturbation method (DDHPM) to solve a class of singular two-point boundary value problems with Neumann and Robin-type boundary conditions arising in various physical models. Five numerical examples are presented to demonstrate the accuracy and applicability of our method, including thermal explosion, oxygen-diffusion in a spherical cell and heat conduction through a solid with heat generation. A comparison is made between the proposed technique and other existing seminumerical or numerical techniques. Numerical results reveal that only two or three iterations lead to high accuracy of the solution and this newly improved technique introduces a powerful improvement for solving nonlinear singular boundary value problems (SBVPs).
