Explicit traveling wave solutions of five kinds of nonlinear evolution equations

First of all, by using Bernoulli equations, we develop some technical lemmas. Then, we establish the explicit traveling wave solutions of five kinds of nonlinear evolution equations: nonlinear convection diffusion equations (including Burgers equations), nonlinear dispersive wave equations (including Korteweg-de Vries equations), nonlinear dissipative dispersive wave equations (including Ginzburg-Landau equation, Korteweg-de Vries-Burgers equation and Benjamin-Bona-Mahony-Burgers equation), nonlinear hyperbolic equations (including Sine-Gordon equation) and nonlinear reaction diffusion equations (including Belousov-Zhabotinskii system of reaction diffusion equations).     

A modified tanh–coth method for solving the KdV and the KdV–Burgers’ equations

In this work we use a modified tanh–coth method to solve the Korteweg-de Vries and Korteweg-de Vries–Burgers’ equations. The main idea is to take full advantage of the Riccati equation that the tanh-function satisfies. New multiple travelling wave solutions are obtained for the Korteweg-de Vries and Korteweg-de Vries–Burgers’ equations.     

Weak and Strong Interactions between Internal Solitary Waves

The interaction of weakly nonlinear long internal gravity waves is studied. Weak interactions occur when the wave phase speeds are unequal; this case includes that of a head-on collision. It is shown that each wave satisfies a Korteweg-de Vries equation, and the main effect of the interaction is described by a phase shift. Strong interactions occur when the wave phase speeds are nearly equal although the waves belong to different modes. This case is described by a pair of coupled Korteweg-de Vries equations, for which some preliminary numerical results are presented.     

The Korteweg-de Vries equation in a cylindrical pipe

A mathematical model of nonlinear wave propagation in a pipeline is constructed. The Korteweg-de Vries equation is derived by determining asymptotic solutions and changing variables. A particular solution to the model equations is found that has the fluid velocity function in the form of a solitary wave. Thus, the class of nonlinear fluid dynamics problems described by the KdV equation is expanded.     

On a KdV equation with higher-order nonlinearity: Traveling wave solutions

In this work, the improved tanh-coth method is used to obtain wave solutions to a Korteweg-de Vries (KdV) equation with higher-order nonlinearity, from which the standard KdV and the modified Korteweg-de Vries (mKdV) equations with variable coefficients can be derived as particular cases. However, the model studied here include other important equations with applications in several fields of physical and nonlinear sciences. Periodic and soliton solutions are formally derived.

On the characterization of the nonlinear Schrödinger hierarchy

It is proved that the conserved polynomials of the nonlinear Schrödinger equation have a vanishing residue property analogous to those now known to characterize the Korteweg-de Vries, Modified Korteweg-de Vries and Sine-Gordon hierarchies.     

New exact solutions for a generalization of the Korteweg-de Vries equation (KdV6)

The generalized tanh-coth method is used to construct periodic and soliton solutions for a new integrable system, which has been derived from an integrable sixth-order nonlinear wave equation (KdV6). The system is formed by two equations. One of the equations may be considered as a Korteweg-de Vries equation with a source and the second equation is a third-order linear differential equation.     

Exact solutions of the Korteweg-de Vries equation with space and time dependent coefficients by the extended unified method

Recently the unified method for finding traveling wave solutions of nonlinear evolution equations was proposed by one of the authors. It was shown that, this method unifies all the methods being used to find these solutions. In this paper, we extend this method to find a class of formal exact solutions to Korteweg-de Vries equation with space-time dependent coefficients.     

Solitary waves in a tapered prestressed fluid-filled elastic tube

In the present work, treating the arteries as a tapered, thin walled, long and circularly conical prestressed elastic tube and using the longwave approximation, we have studied the propagation of weakly nonlinear waves in such a fluid-filled elastic tube by employing the reductive perturbation method. By considering the blood as an incompressible inviscid fluid the evolution equation is obtained as the Korteweg-de Vries equation with a variable coefficient. It is shown that this type of equations admit a solitary wave type of solution with variable wave speed. It is observed that, the wave speed increases with distance for positive tapering while it decreases for negative tapering.

A note on the wave propagation in water of variable depth

In the present work, utilizing the two dimensional equations of an incompressible inviscid fluid and the reductive perturbation method we studied the propagation of weakly nonlinear waves in water of variable depth. For the case of slowly varying depth, the evolution equation is obtained as the variable coefficient Korteweg-de Vries (KdV) equation. Due to the difficulties for the analytical solutions, a numerical technics so called “the method of integrating factor” is used and the evolution equation is solved under a given initial condition and the bottom topography. It is observed the parameters of bottom topography causes to the changes in wave amplitude, wave profile and the wave speed.     

Interactions between exotic multi-valued solitons of the (2+1)-dimensional Korteweg-de Vries equation describing shallow water wave

Korteweg-de Vries equation governs the weakly nonlinear long wave whose phase speed reaches a simple maximum of wave with the infinite length in shallow water wave. The exponential-form variable separation solution of (2+1)-dimensional Kortweg-de Vries equation is found via the two-function method, and this solution covers many special combined solutions including sinh-cosh,sin-cos,sech-tanh,csch-coth,sec-tan and csc-cot solutions. From the exponential-form solution with choosing suitable functions, inelastic interactions between special multi-valued solitons with two loops such as anti-bell-shaped, anti-peak-shaped semifoldons and anti-foldon are graphically and analytically studied. By the asymptotic analysis, phase shift and its difference during interactions between multi-valued solitons are analytically given.     

Resonant Generation of Finite-Amplitude Waves by Flow Past Topography on a β-Plane

The forced Korteweg-de Vries (fKdV) equation is the generic equation for resonant flow past an obstacle. However, for flow past topography on a β-plane, the case when the upstream flow is uniform is anomalous in that there is no quadratic nonlinear term in the fKdV equation. Here we show that in this important case an alternative theory is required and obtain a new evolution equation, which has some similarities to the fKdV equation with two significant differences. These are that a small-amplitude topography now produces finite-amplitude waves and the flow response is limited by a wave breakdown characterized by an incipient flow reversal. Various numerical solutions are described.

Geometric numerical schemes for the KdV equation

Geometric discretizations that preserve certain Hamiltonian structures at the discrete level has been proven to enhance the accuracy of numerical schemes. In particular, numerous symplectic and multi-symplectic schemes have been proposed to solve numerically the celebrated Korteweg-de Vries equation. In this work, we show that geometrical schemes are as much robust and accurate as Fourier-type pseudospectral methods for computing the long-time KdV dynamics, and thus more suitable to model complex nonlinear wave phenomena.     

Weakly nonlinear waves in a linearly tapered elastic tube filled with a fluid

In the present work, treating the arteries as a tapered, thin-walled, long and circularly conical prestressed elastic tube and using the long-wave approximation, we have studied the propagation of weakly nonlinear waves in such a fluid-filled elastic tube by employing the reductive perturbation method. By considering the blood as an incompressible inviscid fluid the evolution equation is obtained as the Korteweg-de Vries equation with a variable coefficient. It is shown that this type of equations admits a solitary wave type of solution with variable wave speed. It is observed that the wave speed increases with the scaled time parameter τ for positive tapering while it decreases for negative tapering, as expected.     

On asymptotic behavior of solutions to Korteweg-de Vries type equations related to vortex filament with axial flow

We study the global existence and asymptotic behavior in time of solutions to the Korteweg-de Vries type equation called as “Hirota” equation. This equation is a mixture of cubic nonlinear Schrödinger equation and modified Korteweg-de Vries equation. We show the unique existence of the solution for this equation which tends to the given “modified” free profile by using the two asymptotic formulae for some oscillatory integrals.     

A finite difference method for the Korteweg-de Vries and the Kadomtsev-Petviashvili equations

A linearized implicit finite difference method for the Korteweg-de Vries equation is proposed and straightforwardly extended to the Kadomtsev-Petviashvili equation. We investigate the order of accuracy of the method and prove the method to be unconditionally linearly stable. The numerical experiments for the Korteweg-de Vries and the Kadomtsev-Petviashvili equations are carried out with various conditions. Numerical results for the collision of two lump type solitary wave solutions to the Kadomtsev-Petviashvili equation are also reported.
