Exact Traveling Wave Solutions of Nonlinear PDEs in Mathematical Physics Using the Modified Simple Equation Method

In this article, we apply the modified simple equation method to find the exact solutions with parameters of the (1+1)-dimensional nonlinear Burgers-Huxley equation, the (2+1) dimensional cubic nonlinear Klein-Gordon equation and the (2+1)-dimensional nonlinear Kadomtsev- Petviashvili-Benjamin-Bona-Mahony (KP-BBM) equation. The new exact solutions of these three equations are obtained. When these parameters are given special values, the solitary solutions are obtained

An exponential expansion method and its application to the strain wave equation in microstructured solids

AbstractThe modeling of wave propagation in microstructured materials should be able to account for various scales of microstructure. Based on the proposed new exponential expansion method, we obtained the multiple explicit and exact traveling wave solutions of the strain wave equation for describing different types of wave propagation in microstructured solids. The solutions obtained in this paper include the solitary wave solutions of topological kink, singular kink, non-topological bell type solutions, solitons, compacton, cuspon, periodic solutions, and solitary wave solutions of rational functions. It is shown that the new exponential method, with the help of symbolic computation, provides an effective and straightforward mathematical tool for solving nonlinear evolution equations arising in mathematical physics and engineering

A septic B-spline collocation method for solving the generalized equal width wave equation

In this work, a septic B-spline collocation method is implemented to find the numerical solution of the generalized equal width (GEW) wave equation by using two different linearization techniques. Test problems including single soliton, interaction of solitons and Maxwellian initial condition are solved to verify the proposed method by calculating the error norms L2 and L∞ and the invariants I1, I2 and I3. Applying the Von-Neumann stability analysis, the proposed method is shown to be unconditionally stable. As a result, the obtained results are found in good agreement with the some recent results

Periodic and solitary waves in systems of coherently coupled nonlinear envelope equations

Exact solutions for two classes of coherently coupled nonlinear envelope equations are derived in terms of products of Jacobi elliptic functions. Physical applications are illustrated in the context of nonlinear optics, namely, polarization of light beams and quadratic (or parametric) solitons. Stabilities of these double-humped solitary pulses are studied by direct numerical simulations. The use of computer is crucial, both in terms of symbolic manipulation in the derivation process and in the implementation of numerical schemes in stability consideration. © 2010 Taylor & Francis.postprin
