Generalized solitary and periodic wave solutions to a (2 + 1)-dimensional Zakharov-Kuznetsov equation

In this paper, the Exp-function method is employed to the Zakharov-Kuznetsov equation as a (2 + 1)-dimensional model for nonlinear Rossby waves. The observation of solitary wave solutions and periodic wave solutions constructed from the exponential function solutions reveal that our approach is very effective and convenient. The obtained results may be useful for better understanding the properties of two-dimensional coherent structures such as atmospheric blocking events. © 2009 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved

New Exact Solutions to the Generalized Zakharov Equations and the Complex Coupled KdV Equations

In this paper, we obtain several types of exact traveling wave solutions of the generalized Zakharov equations and the complex coupled KdV equations by using improved Riccati equations method. These explicit exact solutions contain solitary wave solutions, periodic wave solutions and the combined formal solitary wave solutions. The method can also be applied to solve more nonlinear partial differential equations.Key Words: Improved Riccati equations method; Generalized Zakharov equations; Complex coupled KdV equations; Solitary wave solutions; Periodic wave solution

Traveling Wave Solutions for the Generalized Zakharov Equations

We use the bifurcation method of dynamical systems to study the traveling wave solutions for the generalized Zakharov equations. A number of traveling wave solutions are obtained. Those solutions contain explicit periodic wave solutions, periodic blow-up wave solutions, unbounded wave solutions, kink profile solitary wave solutions, and solitary wave solutions. Relations of the traveling wave solutions are given. Some previous results are extended

SOLITARY WAVE SOLUTIONS FOR SPACE-TIME FRACTIONAL COUPLED INTEGRABLE DISPERSIONLESS SYSTEM VIA GENERALIZED KUDRYASHOV METHOD

In this article, space-time fractional coupled integrable dispersionless system is considered, and we use fractional derivative in the sense of modified Riemann-Liouville. The fractional system has reduced to an ordinary differential system by fractional transformation and the generalized Kudryashov method is applied to obtain exact solutions. We also testify performance as well as precision of the applied method by means of numerical tests for obtaining solutions. The obtained results have been graphically presented to show the properties of the solutions

Variation Iteration Method for Solving Ethanol and Acetaldehyde Concentrations in a Fixed Bed Laboratory Reactor

In this paper, we investigate the effects of nonlinear behaviour of the dimensionless concentrations of the ethanol and acetaldehyde in a fixed bed laboratory reactor. The work is based on solving the nonlinear differential equation of concentration of the ethanol and acetaldehyde by means of the He’s variational iteration method (VIM). Also, the numerical simulation (4th order Runge – Kutta method) is reported using Matlab software. The analytical solutions are compared with numerical results in order to achieve conclusions based on not only for accuracy and efficiency of the solutions, but also the simplicity of the taken procedures which would have remarkable effects on the time devoted for solving process. The analytical result reported in this work is useful to understand the behaviour of the system. Furthermore, due to the accuracy and convergence of obtained solutions, it is proved that the VIM could be applied through other nonlinear problems even with high nonlinearity

HYPERBOLIC TYPE SOLUTIONS FOR THE COUPLE BOITI-LEON-PEMPINELLI SYSTEM

In this paper, the (1/G')-expansion method is used to solve the coupled Boiti-Leon-Pempinelli (CBLP) system. The proposed method was used to construct hyperbolic type solutions of the nonlinear evolution equations. To asses the applicability and effectiveness of this method, some nonlinear evolution equations have been investigated in this study. It is shown that with the help of symbolic computation, the (1/G')-expansion method provides a powerful and straightforward mathematical tool for solving nonlinear partial differential equations
