    In this paper, we are going to obtain the soliton solution of the generalized RosenauKawahara-RLW equation that describes the dynamics of shallow water waves in oceans and rivers. We confirm that our new algorithm is energy-preserved and unconditionally stable. In order to determine the performance of our numerical algorithm, we have computed the error norms L2 and L∞. Convergence of full discrete scheme is firstly studied. Numerical experiments are implemented to validate the energy conservation and effectiveness for longtime simulation. The obtained numerical results have been compared with a study in the literature for similar parameters. This comparison clearly shows that our results are much better than the other results

    Traveling Wave Solutions to Kawahara and Related Equations

    Traveling wave solutions to Kawahara equation (KE), transmission line (TL), and Korteweg-de Vries (KdV) equation are found by using an elliptic function method which is more general than the tanh-method. The method works by assuming that a polynomial ansatz satisfies a Weierstrass equation, and has two advantages: first, it reduces the number of terms in the ansatz by an order of two, and second, it uses Weierstrass functions which satisfy an elliptic equation for the dependent variable instead of the hyperbolic tangent functions which only satisfy the Riccati equation with constant coefficients. When the polynomial ansatz in the traveling wave variable is of first order, the equation reduces to the KdV equation with only a cubic dispersion term, while for the KE which includes a fifth order dispersion term the polynomial ansatz must necessary be of quadratic type. By solving the elliptic equation with coefficients that depend on the boundary conditions, velocity of the traveling waves, nonlinear strength, and dispersion coefficients, in the case of KdV equation we find the well-known solitary waves (solitons) for zero boundary conditions, as well as wave-trains of cnoidal waves for nonzero boundary conditions. Both solutions are either compressive (bright) or rarefactive (dark), and either propagate to the left or right with arbitrary velocity. In the case of KE with nonzero boundary conditions and zero cubic dispersion, we obtain cnoidal wave-trains which represent solutions to the TL equation. For KE with zero boundary conditions and all the dispersion terms present, we obtain again solitary waves, while for KE with all coefficients present and nonzero boundary condition, the solutions are written in terms of Weierstrass elliptic functions. For all cases of the KE we only find bright waves that are propagating to the right with velocity that is a function of both dispersion coefficients

    Elliptic solutions and solitary waves of a higher order KdV--BBM long wave equation

    We provide conditions for existence of hyperbolic, unbounded periodic and elliptic solutions in terms of Weierstrass \wp functions of both third and fifth-order KdV--BBM (Korteweg-de Vries--Benjamin, Bona \& Mahony) regularized long wave equation. An analysis for the initial value problem is developed together with a local and global well-posedness theory for the third-order KdV--BBM equation. Traveling wave reduction is used together with zero boundary conditions to yield solitons and periodic unbounded solutions, while for nonzero boundary conditions we find solutions in terms of Weierstrass elliptic \wp functions. For the fifth-order KdV--BBM equation we show that a parameter γ=112\gamma=\frac {1}{12}, for which the equation has a Hamiltonian, represents a restriction for which there are constraint curves that never intersect a region of unbounded solitary waves, which in turn shows that only dark or bright solitons and no unbounded solutions exist. Motivated by the lack of a Hamiltonian structure for γ112\gamma\neq\frac{1}{12} we develop HkH^k bounds, and we show for the non Hamiltonian system that dark and bright solitons coexist together with unbounded periodic solutions. For nonzero boundary conditions, due to the complexity of the nonlinear algebraic system of coefficients of the elliptic equation we construct Weierstrass solutions for a particular set of parameters only.Comment: 13 pages, 6 figure

    Traveling Wave Solutions to Fifth- and Seventh-order Korteweg-de Vries Equations: Sech and Cn Solutions

    Full text link
    In this paper we review the physical relevance of a Korteweg-de Vries (KdV) equation with higher-order dispersion terms which is used in the applied sciences and engineering. We also present exact traveling wave solutions to this generalized KdV equation using an elliptic function method which can be readily applied to any scalar evolution or wave equation with polynomial terms involving only odd derivatives. We show that the generalized KdV equation still supports hump-shaped solitary waves as well as cnoidal wave solutions provided that the coefficients satisfy specific algebraic constraints. Analytical solutions in closed form serve as benchmarks for numerical solvers or comparison with experimental data. They often correspond to homoclinic orbits in the phase space and serve as separatrices of stable and unstable regions. Some of the solutions presented in this paper correct, complement, and illustrate results previously reported in the literature, while others are novel.Comment: 12 pages, 4 figures, minor text modifications, updated bibliograph

    Solitary Wave Solutions of the Generalized Rosenau-KdV-RLW Equation

    This paper investigates the solitary wave solutions of the generalized Rosenau–Korteweg-de Vries-regularized-long wave equation. This model is obtained by coupling the Rosenau–Korteweg-de Vries and Rosenau-regularized-long wave equations. The solution of the equation is approximated by a local meshless technique called radial basis function (RBF) and the finite-difference (FD) method. The association of the two techniques leads to a meshless algorithm that does not requires the linearization of the nonlinear terms. First, the partial differential equation is transformed into a system of ordinary differential equations (ODEs) using radial kernels. Then, the ODE system is solved by means of an ODE solver of higher-order. It is shown that the proposed method is stable. In order to illustrate the validity and the efficiency of the technique, five problems are tested and the results compared with those provided by other schemes.info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersio
