    In this article, a Petrov-Galerkin method, in which the element shape functions are cubic and weight functions are quadratic B-splines, is introduced to solve the modified regularized long wave (MRLW) equation. The solitary wave motion, interaction of two and three solitary waves, and development of the Maxwellian initial condition into solitary waves are studied using the proposed method. Accuracy and efficiency of the method are demonstrated by computing the numerical conserved laws and L2, L∞ error norms. The computed results show that the present scheme is a successful numerical technique for solving the MRLW equation. A linear stability analysis based on the Fourier method is also investigate

    In this work, a numerical solution of the modified regularized long wave (MRLW) equation is obtained by the method based on collocation of quintic B-splines over the finite elements. A linear stability analysis shows that the numerical scheme based on Von Neumann approximation theory is unconditionally stable. Test problems including the solitary wave motion, the interaction of two and three solitary waves and the Maxwellian initial condition are solved to validate the proposed method by calculating error norms L2 and L∞ that are found to be marginally accurate and efficient. The three invariants of the motion have been calculated to determine the conservation properties of the scheme. The obtained results are compared with other earlier result

    Numerical approximation of the generalized regularized long wave equation using Petrov–Galerkin finite element method

    The generalized regularized long wave (GRLW) equation has been developed to model a variety of physical phenomena such as ion-acoustic and magnetohydro dynamic waves in plasma,nonlinear transverse waves in shallow water and phonon packets in nonlinear crystals. This paper aims to develop andanalyze a powerful numerical scheme for the nonlinear GRLWequation by Petrov–Galerkin method in which the elementshape functions are cubic and weight functions are quadratic B-splines. The proposed method is implemented to three ref-erence problems involving propagation of the single solitarywave, interaction of two solitary waves and evolution of solitons with the Maxwellian initial condition. The variational for-mulation and semi-discrete Galerkin scheme of the equation are firstly constituted. We estimate rate of convergence of such an approximation. Using Fourier stability analysis of thelinearized scheme we show that the scheme is uncondition-ally stable. To verify practicality and robustness of the new scheme error norms L2, L∞ and three invariants I1, I2,and I3 are calculated. The computed numerical results are compared with other published results and confirmed to be precise and effective

    A new numerical application of the generalized Rosenau-RLW equation

    . This study implemented a collocation nite element method based on septic B-splines as a tool to obtain the numerical solutions of the nonlinear generalized RosenauRLW equation. One of the advantages of this method is that when the bases are chosen at a high degree, better numerical solutions are obtained. E ectiveness of the method is demonstrated by solving the equation with various initial and boundary conditions. Further, in order to detect the performance of the method, L2 and L1 error norms and two lowest invariants IM and IE were computed. The obtained numerical results were compared with some of those in the literature for similar parameters. This comparison clearly shows that the obtained results are better than and in good conformity with some of the earlier results. Stability analysis demonstrates that the proposed algorithm, based on a Crank Nicolson approximation in time, is unconditionally stable

    In this paper, a numerical solution of the modified regularized long wave (MRLW) equation has been obtained by a numerical technique based on a lumped Galerkin method using cubic B-spline finite elements. Solitary wave motion, interaction of two and three solitary waves have been studied to validate the proposed method. The three invariants ( 1 2 3 I ,I ,I ) of the motion have been calculated to determine the conservation properties of the scheme. Error norms L2 and L∞ have been used to measure the differences between the exact and numerical solutions. Also, a linear stability analysis of the scheme is proposed
