Multi-symplectic Runge-Kutta methods for Landau-Ginzburg-Higgs equation

Nonlinear wave equations have been extensively investigated in the last sev- eral decades. The Landau-Ginzburg-Higgs equation, a typical nonlinear wave equation, is studied in this paper based on the multi-symplectic theory in the Hamilton space. The multi-symplectic Runge-Kutta method is reviewed, and a semi-implicit scheme with certain discrete conservation laws is constructed to solve the first-order partial differential equations （PDEs） derived from the Landau-Ginzburg-Higgs equation. The numerical re- sults for the soliton solution of the Landau-Ginzburg-Higgs equation are reported, showing that the multi-symplectic Runge-Kutta method is an efficient algorithm with excellent long-time numerical behaviors.

THE MULTI-SYMPLECTIC ALGORITHM FOR “GOOD” BOUSSINESQ EQUATION

The multi-symplectic formulations of the “Good” Boussinesq equation were considered. For the multi-symplectic formulation, a new fifteen-point difference scheme which is equivalent to the multi-symplectic Preissman integrator was derived. The numerical experiments show that the multi-symplectic scheme have excellent long-time numerical behavior.

Blow-up of solution for a generalized Boussinesq equation

Comparison of the calculations of three-convolution circular ARC corrugated diaphragms by toroidal shell theory and by orthogonal anisotropy plate theory

The calculation of elastic deformations of corrugated diaphragms was given by orthogonal anisotropy plate theory^[1], and its result agrees with the experimental results. But it has never been discussed seriously how the number and form of convolutions affect the elastic deformations and stress distributions of anisotropy plate. As a result, adaptable limits of orthogonal anisotropy plate theory cannot be indicated when it is used to calculate diaphragms. It is said that the theory is fairly good for calculating elastic deformations of the diaphragms which have more convolutions. It is also said that the error in calculating stresses is rather large. This paper, by using the toroidal shell theory, presents the calculation of deformations and stresses of three-convolution circular arc corrugated diaphragms both symmetrical and unsymmetrical, compares its result with that of the orthogonal anisotropy plate theory and gives definite adaptable limits of the latter theory.     

Multi-symplectic method for the generalized (2+1)-dimensional KdV-mKdV equation

In the present paper,a general solution involving three arbitrary functions for the generalized(2+1)dimensional KdV-mKdV equation,which is derived fromthe generalized(1+1)-dimensional KdV-mKdV equation,is first introduced by means of the Wiess,Tabor,Carnevale(WTC) truncation method.And then multisymplectic formulations with several conservation lawstaken into account are presented for the generalized(2+1)dimensional KdV-mKdV equation based on the multisymplectic theory of Bridges.Subsequently,in order tosimulate the periodic wave solutions in terms of rationalfunctions of the Jacobi elliptic functions derived from thegeneral solution,a semi-implicit multi-symplectic schemeis constructed that is equivalent to the Preissmann scheme.From the results of the numerical experiments,we can conclude that the multi-symplectic schemes can accurately simulate the periodic wave solutions of the generalized(2+1)dimensional KdV-mKdV equation while preserve approximately the conservation laws.     

Multi-symplectic methods for membrane free vibration equation

In this paper,the multi-symplectic formulations of the membrane free vi- bration equation with periodic boundary conditions in Hamilton space are considered. The complex method is introduced and a semi-implicit twenty-seven-points scheme with certain discrete conservation laws—a multi-symplectic conservation law(CLS),a local energy conservation law(ECL)as well as a local momentum conservation law(MCL)—is constructed to discrete the PDEs that are derived from the membrane free vibra- tion equation.The results of the numerical experiments show that the multi-symplectic scheme has excellent long-time numerical behavior.     

Moving mesh methods for Boussinesq equation

The Boussinesq equation is a challenging problem both analytically and numerically. Owing to the complex dynamic development of small scales and the rapid loss of solution regularity, the Boussinesq equation pushes any numerical strategy to the limit. With uniform meshes, the amount of computational time is too large to enable us to obtain useful numerical approximations. Therefore, developing effective and robust moving mesh methods for these problems becomes necessary. In this work, we develop an efficient moving mesh algorithm for solving the two‐dimensional Boussinesq equation. Our moving mesh algorithm is an extension of Tang and Tang (SIAM J. Numer. Anal. 2003; 41 :487–515) for hyperbolic conservation laws and Zhang and Tang (Commun. Pure Appl. Anal. 2002; 1 :57–73) for convection‐dominated equations.

New method of solving Lame-Helmholtz equation and ellipsoidal wave functions

Despite the great significance of equations with doubly-periodic coefficients in the methods of mathematical physics, the problem of solving Lamé-Helmholtz equation still remains to be tackled. Arscott and Moglich method of double-series expansion as well as Malurkar nonlinear integral equation are incapable of reaching the final explicit solution.Our main result consists in obtaining analytic expressions for ellipsoidal wave functions of four species (i=1,2,3,4) including the well known Lam(α) functions E_ci(snα),E_z1(snα) as special cases. This is effected by deriving two Integra-differential equations with variable coefficients and solving them by integral transform. Generalizing Riemann’s idea of P function, we introduce D function to express their transformation properties.     

Instability of solitary waves for generalized Boussinesq equations

An equation of Boussinesq-type of the formu _tt -u _xx +(f(u)+u_xx)_xx=0 is considered. It is shown that a traveling wave may be stable or unstable, depending on the range of the wave's speed of propagation and on the nonlinearity. Sharp conditions to that effect are given.This research is supported in part by NSF Grant DMS 90-23864.

Modified asymptotic Adomian decomposition method for solving Boussinesq equation of groundwater flow

The Adomian decomposition method （ADM） is an approximate analytic method for solving nonlinear equations. Generally, an approximate solution can be ob- tained by using only a few terms. However, in applications, we need to use it flexibly according to the real problem. In this paper, based on the ADM, we give a modified asymptotic Adomian decomposition method and use it to solve the nonlinear Boussinesq equation describing groundwater flows. The example shows effectiveness of the modified asymptotic Adomian decomposition method.     

Potential symmetries and conservation laws for generalized quasilinear hyperbolic equations

Based on the Lie group method, the potential symmetries and invariant solutions for generalized quasilinear hyperbolic equations are studied. To obtain the invariant solutions in an explicit form, the physically interesting situations with potential symmetries are focused on, and the conservation laws for these equations in three physically interesting cases are found by using the partial Lagrangian approach.     

Symmetry reductions and exact solutions to the ill-posed Boussinesq equation

In this paper, using the Lie symmetry analysis method, we study the ill-posed Boussinesq equation which arises in shallow water waves and non-linear lattices. The similarity reductions and exact solutions for the equation are obtained. Then the exact analytic solutions are considered by the power series method, and the physical significance of the solutions is considered from the transformation group point of view.     

A generalized auxiliary equation method and its applications

In this paper, a generalized auxiliary equation method with the aid of the computer symbolic computation system Maple is proposed to construct more exact solutions of nonlinear evolution equations, namely, the higher-order nonlinear Schrödinger equation, the Whitham–Broer–Kaup system, and the generalized Zakharov equations. As a result, some new types of exact travelling wave solutions are obtained, including soliton-like solutions, trigonometric function solutions, exponential solutions, and rational solutions. The method is straightforward and concise, and its applications are promising.     

Soliton solution to generalized nonlinear disturbed Klein-Gordon equation

Analytical approach to Boussinesq equation with space‐ and time‐fractional derivatives

In this paper, the homotopy perturbation method (HPM) is developed to obtain approximate analytical solutions of a fractional Boussinesq equation with initial condition. The fractional derivatives are described in the Caputo sense. Some examples are given and comparisons are made, the comparisons show that the HPM is very effective and convenient and overcomes the difficulty of traditional methods. The numerical results show that the approaches are easy to implement and accurate when applied to space‐ and time‐fractional equations. Copyright © 2010 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Higher order dispersive effects in regularized Boussinesq equation

In this paper, we consider the higher order Boussinesq (HBq) equation which models the bi-directional propagation of longitudinal waves in various continuous media. The equation contains the higher order effects of frequency dispersion. The present study is devoted to the numerical investigation of the HBq equation. For this aim a numerical scheme combining the Fourier pseudo-spectral method in space and a Runge–Kutta method in time is constructed. The convergence of semi-discrete scheme is proved in an appropriate Sobolev space. To investigate the higher order dispersive effects and nonlinear effects on the solutions of HBq equation, propagation of single solitary wave, head-on collision of solitary waves and blow-up solutions are considered.
