    Abstract The generalized Riccati equation mapping is extended together with the ( ) expansion method and is a powerful mathematical tool for solving nonlinear partial differential equations. In this article, we construct twenty seven new exact traveling wave solutions including solitons and periodic solutions of the modified Benjamin-Bona-Mahony equation by applying the extended generalized Riccati equation mapping method. In this method, implemented as the auxiliary equation, where , r s and p are arbitrary constants and called the generalized Riccati equation. The obtained solutions are described in four different families including the hyperbolic functions, the trigonometric functions and the rational functions. In addition, it is worth mentioning that one of newly obtained solutions is identical for a special case with already published result which validates our other solutions.

    Get PDF
    A generalized and improved (G'/G)-expansion method is proposed for finding more general type and new travelling wave solutions of nonlinear evolution equations. To illustrate the novelty and advantage of the proposed method, we solve the KdV equation, the Zakharov-Kuznetsov- Benjamin-Bona-Mahony �ZKBBM� equation and the strain wave equation in microstructured solids. Abundant exact travelling wave solutions of these equations are obtained, which include the soliton, the hyperbolic function, the trigonometric function, and the rational functions. Also it is shown that the proposed method is efficient for solving nonlinear evolution equations in mathematical physics and in engineering

    Elliptic solutions to a generalized BBM equation

    Full text link
    An approach is proposed to obtain some exact explicit solutions in terms of the Weierstrass' elliptic function \wp to a generalized Benjamin-Bona-Mahony (BBM) equation. Conditions for periodic and solitary wave like solutions can be expressed compactly in terms of the invariants of \wp. The approach unifies recently established ad-hoc methods to a certain extent. Evaluation of a balancing principle simplifies the application of this approach.Comment: 11 pages, 2 tables, submitted to Phys. Lett.

    Existence, uniqueness and analyticity of space-periodic solutions to the regularised long-wave equation

    Full text link
    We consider space-periodic evolutionary and travelling-wave solutions to the regularised long-wave equation (RLWE) with damping and forcing. We establish existence, uniqueness and smoothness of the evolutionary solutions for smooth initial conditions, and global in time spatial analyticity of such solutions for analytical initial conditions. The width of the analyticity strip decays at most polynomially. We prove existence of travelling-wave solutions and uniqueness of travelling waves of a sufficiently small norm. The importance of damping is demonstrated by showing that the problem of finding travelling-wave solutions to the undamped RLWE is not well-posed. Finally, we demonstrate the asymptotic convergence of the power series expansion of travelling waves for a weak forcing.Comment: 29 pp., 4 figures, 44 reference

    Generation of two-dimensional water waves by moving bottom disturbances

    Get PDF
    We investigate the potential and limitations of the wave generation by disturbances moving at the bottom. More precisely, we assume that the wavemaker is composed of an underwater object of a given shape which can be displaced according to a prescribed trajectory. We address the practical question of computing the wavemaker shape and trajectory generating a wave with prescribed characteristics. For the sake of simplicity we model the hydrodynamics by a generalized forced Benjamin-Bona-Mahony (BBM) equation. This practical problem is reformulated as a constrained nonlinear optimization problem. Additional constraints are imposed in order to fulfill various practical design requirements. Finally, we present some numerical results in order to demonstrate the feasibility and performance of the proposed methodology.Comment: 21 pages, 7 figures, 1 table, 69 references.

    On the Galilean invariance of some dispersive wave equations

    Get PDF
    Surface water waves in ideal fluids have been typically modeled by asymptotic approximations of the full Euler equations. Some of these simplified models lose relevant properties of the full water wave problem. One of them is the Galilean symmetry, which is not present in important models such as the BBM equation and the Peregrine (Classical Boussinesq) system. In this paper we propose a mechanism to modify the above mentioned classical models and derive new, Galilean invariant models. We present some properties of the new equations, with special emphasis on the computation and interaction of their solitary-wave solutions. The comparison with full Euler solutions shows the relevance of the preservation of Galilean invariance for the description of water waves.Comment: 29 pages, 13 figures, 2 tables, 71 references.
