New explicit and exact traveling wave solutions for two nonlinear evolution equations

In this paper, with the aid of computer symbolic computation system such as Maple, an algebraic method is firstly applied to two nonlinear evolution equations, namely, nonlinear Schrodinger equation and Pochhammer–Chree (PC) equation. As a consequence, some new types of exact traveling wave solutions are obtained, which include bell and kink profile solitary wave solutions, triangular periodic wave solutions, and singular solutions. The method is straightforward and concise, and it can also be applied to other nonlinear evolution equations in mathematical physics.     

On the supersymmetric nonlinear evolution equations

Supersymmetrization of a nonlinear evolution equation in which the bosonic equation is independent of the fermionic variable and the system is linear in fermionic field goes by the name B-supersymmetrization. We provide B-supersymmetric extension of a number of quasilinear and fully nonlinear evolution equations and demonstrate that the supersymmetric system follows from the usual action principle. We observe that B-supersymmetrization can also be realized using a generalized Noetherian symmetry such that the resulting set of Lagrangian symmetries coincides with symmetries of the field equations. Following this viewpoint we derive conservation laws for the supersymmetric pair of equations. We attempt to realize the bosonic and fermionic fields in terms of bright and dark solitons. The interpretation sought by us has its origin in the classic work of Bateman who introduced a reverse-time system with negative friction to bring linear dissipative systems within the framework of variational principle.     

Interfacial instabilities in a stratified flow of two superposed fluids

Here we shall present a linear stability analysis of a laminar, stratified flow of two superposed fluids which are a clear liquid and a suspension of solid particles. The investigation is based upon the assumption that the concentration remains constant within the suspension layer. Even for moderate flow-rates the base-state results for a shear induced resuspension flow justify the latter assumption. The numerical solutions display the existence of two different branches that contribute to convective instability: long and short waves which coexist in a certain range of parameters. Also, a range exists where the flow is absolutely unstable. That means a convectively unstable resuspension flow can be only observed for Reynolds numbers larger than a lower, critical Reynolds number but still smaller than a second critical Reynolds number. For flow rates which give rise to a Reynolds number larger than the second critical Reynolds number, the flow is absolutely unstable. In some cases, however, there exists a third bound beyond that the flow is convectively unstable again. Experiments show the same phenomena: for small flow-rates short waves were usually observed but occasionally also the coexistence of short and long waves. These findings are qualitatively in good agreement with the linear stability analysis. Larger flow-rates in the range of the second critical Reynolds number yield strong interfacial waves with wave breaking and detached particles. In this range, the measured flow-parameters, like the resuspension height and the pressure drop are far beyond the theoretical results. Evidently, a further increase of the Reynolds number indicates the transition to a less wavy interface. Finally, the linear stability analysis also predicts interfacial waves in the case of relatively small suspension heights. These results are in accordance with measurements for ripple-type instabilities as they occur under laminar and viscous conditions for a mono-layer of particles.     

Nonlinear modulation of the interfacial waves of two superposed fluids

The slow modulation of the interfacial capillary — gravity waves of two superposed fluids with uniform depths and solid walls is investigated by using the method of multiple scales. The evolution of a packet is described by the nonlinear Schrödinger equation, and then the stability of the so-called Stokes wave train is discussed.     

Scattering of an incident wave from an interface separating two fluids

We consider the scattering of an incident pulse from an interface separating two fluids. The interface can be either an elastic membrane or a two-fluid interface with surface tension. By considering the limit where the ratio of acoustic wavelength to the surface wavelength is small, we systematically derived a boundary condition relating the scattered wave and the surface deformation. This condition is local and can be used to derive a partial differential equation for the deformation of the interface. This equation includes the contribution of the acoustic waves induced by the motion of the interface and once it is solved it can be used to determine the scattered field. At leading order in our analysis we find the plane wave approximation. The addition of the next order terms results in an on surface condition equivalent to that of Kriegsmann and Scandrett. We present numerical calculations to show that our results are in good agreement with the exact numerical solution as well as that of Kriegsmann and Scandrett. Physical situations where the conditions of our analysis are valid are presented.

Dynamics of nonlinear three-dimensionalwaves on the interface between two fluids in a channel with low-sloping bottom and top

A combined approach is proposed to describe the transformation of three-dimensional disturbances of the interface between two incompressible immiscible fluids of different densities contained in a channel with fixed rigid top and bottom. It is assumed that the wavelengths are moderately large, the amplitudes are small but finite, the top and the bottom can be gently sloping, and capillary effects are small. The system of equations derived is applicable for modeling disturbances simultaneously scattering in arbitrary horizontal directions. Some typical wave problems are numerically solved and the effect of governing parameters is shown.     

Existence and breaking property of real loop-solutions of two nonlinear wave equations

Dynamical analysis has revealed that, for some nonlinear wave equations, loop- and inverted loop-soliton solutions are actually visual artifacts. The so-called loopsoliton solution consists of three solutions, and is not a real solution. This paper answers the question as to whether or not nonlinear wave equations exist for which a ＂real＂ loopsolution exists, and if so, what are the precise parametric representations of these loop traveling wave solutions.     

A new system of equations which predicts the evolution of a wave packet due to a fluid-fluid interaction under a narrow bandwidth assumption

The problem of the capillary-gravity waves which may arise at an interface between two stratified fluids of different densities is investigated. Particular attention is paid to the case when two different wave modes move at the same speed and to the wave train produced by the ensuing interaction. In contrast to most previous studies, the wave steepness and the wave bandwidth are not taken to be of the same order of magnitude, but the latter is of one order smaller. This leads to a system of nonlinear evolution equations which can be used to predict the subsequent progression of the wave field. These equations may be compared with the more usual nonlinear Schrödinger set which are valid under the equal bandwidth assumption and also a recently derived set which describe broader bandwidth waves. A large class of solutions to the equations is found and the corresponding wave profiles are presented.     

Motion of the interface of two fluids in a porous medium

In this study we obtain the Integro-differential equation for the motion of the interface of two incompressible fluids in various well areal arrangement systems. The solution of the equation is presented for a five-point system in the form of a power series with respect to time. Formulas are assumed which describe the motion of the particles belonging to the interface along invariant streamlines for five-point, seven-point, and nine-point well arrangement systems. The stratum sweeping coefficients for the fluid which is displacing the stratum oil are calculated (under conditions of the five-point system) at the instant when the fluid breaks through into the operation wells. The results of the calculations are compared with experimental data [1].The author wishes to thank V. L. Danilov for valuable counsel and comments.     

Propagation of long waves of finite amplitude at the interface of two viscous fluids

The propagation of long waves of finite amplitude at the interface of two viscous fluids has been studied theoretically. For plane Couette-Poiseuille flow of two superposed layers of fluids of different viscosity, an equation is derived to determine the development in time of the shape of these finite amplitude waves. The influence of the viscosity ratio, the density difference of the fluids and an imposed pressure gradient have been investigated.     

On the derivation of some non-linear evolution equations and their progressive wave solutions

In the present work, utilizing the reductive perturbation method, the non-linear equations of a prestressed viscoelastic thick tube filled with a viscous fluid are examined in the longwave approximation and some evolution equations and their modified forms are derived. The analytical solution of some of these equations are obtained and it is shown that for perturbed cases, the wave amplitude and the phase velocity decay in the time parameter.     

A model for the viscous attenuation of waves on the common boundary of two superposed fluids

We study the formation and propagation of waves on the interface between two superposed fluids in relative horizontal motion, and the resulting attenuation of the oscillatory component of the motion caused by viscous dissipation in laminar boundary layer attached to the bottom wall and in a shear layer at the interface.     

On asymptotic stability of stationary solutions to nonlinear wave and Klein-Gordon equations

We consider nonlinear wave and Klein-Gordon equations with general nonlinear terms, localized in space. Conditions are found which provide asymptotic stability of stationary solutions in local energy norms. These conditions are formulated in terms of spectral properties of the Schrödinger operator corresponding to the linearized problem. They are natural extensions to partial differential equations of the known Lyapunov condition. For the nonlinear wave equation in three-dimensional space we find asymptotic expansions, as t, of the solutions which are close enough to a stationary asymptotically stable solution.     

Stability of the wave motion on the charged interface between two immiscible fluids in the presence of a tangential velocity field discontinuity

In the second-order approximation in the dimensionless wave amplitude, the problem of nonlinear periodic capillary-gravity wave motion of the uniformly charged interface between two immiscible ideal incompressible fluids, the lower of which is perfectly electroconductive and the upper, dielectric, moves translationally at a constant velocity parallel to the interface, is solved analytically. It is shown that on the uniformly charged surface of an electroconductive ideal incompressible fluid the positions of internal nonlinear degenerate resonances depend of the medium density ratio but are independent of the upper medium velocity and the surface charge density on the interface. All resonances are realized at densities of the upper medium smaller than the density of the lower medium. In the region of Rayleigh-Taylor instability with respect to density there is no resonant wave interaction.
