An improved element-free Galerkin method for solving the generalized fifth-order Korteweg–de Vries equation

In this paper, an improved element-free Galerkin (IEFG) method is proposed to solve the generalized fifth-order Korteweg-de Vries (gfKdV) equation. When the traditional element-free Galerkin (EFG) method is used to solve such an equation, unstable or even wrong numerical solutions may be obtained due to the violation of the consistency conditions of the moving least-squares (MLS) shape functions. To solve this problem, the EFG method is improved by employing the improved moving least-squares (IMLS) approximation based on the shifted polynomial basis functions. The effectiveness of the IEFG method for the gfKdV equation is investigated by using some numerical examples. Meanwhile, the motion of single solitary wave and the interaction of two solitons are simulated using the IEFG method.

Modification of Multiple Knot $B$-Spline Wavelet for Solving (Partially) Dirichlet Boundary Value Problem

A construction of multiple knot B-spline wavelets has been given in [C. K. Chui and E. Quak, Wavelet on a bounded interval, In: D. Braess and L. L. Schumaker, editors. Numerical methods of approximation theory. Basel: Birkhauser Verlag; (1992), pp. 57-76]. In this work, we first modify these wavelets to solve the elliptic (partially) Dirichlet boundary value problems by Galerkin and Petrov Galerkin methods. We generalize this construction to two dimensional case by Tensor product space. In addition, the solution of the system discretized by Galerkin method with modified multiple knot B-spline wavelets is discussed. We also consider a nonlinear partial differential equation for unsteady flows in an open channel called Saint-Venant. Since the solving of this problem by some methods such as finite difference and finite element produce unsuitable approximations specially in the ends of channel, it is solved by multiple knot B-spline wavelet method that yields a very well approximation. Finally, some numerical examples are given to support our theoretical results.

B-spline Galerkin solutions for the equal width equation

The equal width equation has been solved numerically using the Galerkin finite-element method, based on the Adams-Moulton method for time integration and quadratic/cubic B-splines for space integration. The two proposed algorithms are tested on the problems of propagation of a solitary wave and interaction of two solitary waves. For the first test problem, the convergence rate is computed for the proposed algorithms and the L _?? error norm is used to measure the differences between the exact and numerical solutions. The three conserved quantities of motion are calculated to determine the conservation properties of the two proposed algorithms for both test problems.

Reflections of a Korteweg-de Vries(KdV) solitary wave and an envelope solitary wave are studied by using the particle-in-cell simulation method.Defining the phase shift of the reflected solitary wave,we notice that there is a phase shift of the reflected KdV solitary wave,while there is no phase shift for an envelope solitary wave.It is also noted that the reflection of a KdV solitary wave at a solid boundary is equivalent to the head-on collision between two identical amplitude solitary waves.

The result shows that the first integral method is one of the most effective approaches to obtain the solutions of the nonlinear partial differential equations.     

Optical solitons in $$$$-dimensions under anti-cubic law of nonlinearity by analytical methods

The present study emphasis to look for new closed form exact solitary wave solutions for the \((n+1)\)-dimensional nonlinear Schrödinger equation using the extended trial equation method (ETEM) and the \(\exp (-\Omega (\eta ))\)-expansion method (EEM) with the help of symbolic computation package maple. As a consequence, the ETEM and EEM are successfully employed and acquired some new exact solitary wave solutions in terms of exponential based functions, hyperbolic based functions, trigonometric based functions and rational based functions. All solutions have been verified back into its corresponding equation with the aid of maple package program. Finally, we believe that the executed method is robust and efficient than other methods and the obtained solutions in this paper can help us to understand the variation of solitary waves in the field of nonlinear optic.     

Shape Analysis and Solution to a Class of Nonlinear Wave Equation with Cubic Term

In this paper, we analyze the relation between the shape of the bounded traveling wave solutions and dissipation coefficient of nonlinear wave equation with cubic term by the theory and method of planar dynamical systems. Two critical values which can characterize the scale of dissipation effect are obtained. If dissipation effect is not less than a certain critical value, the traveling wave solutions appear as kink profile; while if it is less than this critical value, they appear as damped oscillatory. All expressions of bounded traveling wave solutions are presented, including exact expressions of bell and kink profile solitary wave solutions, as well as approximate expressions of damped oscillatory solutions. For approximate damped oscillatory solution, using homogenization principle, we give its error estimate by establishing the integral equation which reflects the relations between the exact and approximate solutions. It can be seen that the error is an infinitesimal decreasing in the exponential form.

Solitons and other solutions of the nonlinear fractional Zoomeron equation

In order to investigate the nonlinear fractional Zoomeron equation, we propose three methods, namely the Jacobi elliptic function rational expansion method, the exponential rational function method and the new Jacobi elliptic function expansion method. Many kinds of solutions are obtained and the existence of these solutions is determined. For some parameters, these solutions can degenerate to the envelope shock wave solutions and the envelope solitary wave solutions. A comparison of our new results with the well-known results is made. The methods used here can also be applicable to other nonlinear partial differential equations. The fractional derivatives in this work are described in the modified Riemann–Liouville sense.     

Modeling of acoustic wave propagation in time-domain using the discontinuous Galerkin method – A comparison with measurements

Simulations of acoustic wave propagation in time-domain are presented. In the simulations, the discontinuous Galerkin method for spatial derivatives and the low-storage Runge–Kutta approach for time derivatives are used. Three different simulation cases are studied. First, the directivity of loudspeaker is simulated. In the second case, acoustic wave propagation in free space is studied using a short pulse. In the last case, acoustic wave scattering from a metallic cylinder is simulated. All simulation results are compared with measurement results. The measurements for the acoustic wave scattering from the metallic cylinder are made in 2D planes using an automated measurement system. Comparison between the simulation and measurement results are made both temporally and spatially and a good agreement between the simulation and measurement results is found. The results suggest that the discontinuous Galerkin method coupled with the low-storage Runge–Kutta approach is a viable tool for modeling acoustic wave propagation in the time-domain.     

Analytic Approximations for Soliton Solutions of Short-Wave Models for Camassa-Holm and Degasperis-Procesi Equations

In this paper, the short-wave model equations are investigated, which are associated with the Camassa- Holm （CH） and Degasperis Procesi （DP） shallow-water wave equations. Firstly, by means of the transformation of the independent variables and the travelling wave transformation, the partial differential equation is reduced to an ordinary differential equation. Secondly, the equation is solved by homotopy analysis method. Lastly, by the transformatioas back to the original independent variables, the solution of the original partial differential equation is obtained. The two types of solutions of the short-wave models are obtained in parametric form, one is one-cusp soliton for the CH equation while the other one is one-loop soliton for the DP equation. The approximate analytic solutions expressed by a series of exponential functions agree well with the exact solutions. It demonstrates the validity and great potential of homotopy analysis method for complicated nonlinear solitary wave problems.
