Abundant Exact Traveling Wave Solutions of Generalized Bretherton Equation via Improved (G′/G)-Expansion Method

In this article, we construct abundant exact traveling wave solutions involving free parameters to the generalized Bretherton equation via the improved (G′/G)-expansion method. The traveling wave solutions are presented in terms of the trigonometric, the hyperbolic, and rational functions. When the parameters take special values, the solitary waves are derived from the traveling waves.     

Numerical performance of parallel group explicit solvers for the solution of fourth order elliptic equations

Many applications in applied mathematics and engineering involve numerical solutions of partial differential equations (PDEs). Various discretisation procedures such as the finite difference method result in a problem of solving large, sparse systems of linear equations. In this paper, a group iterative numerical scheme based on the rotated (skewed) five-point finite difference discretisation is proposed for the solution of a fourth order elliptic PDE which represents physical situations in fluid mechanics and elasticity. The rotated approximation formulas lead to schemes with lower computational complexities compared to the centred approximation formulas since the iterative procedure need only involve nodes on half of the total grid points in the solution domain. We describe the development of the parallel group iterative scheme on a cluster of distributed memory parallel computer using Message-Passing Interface (MPI) programming environment. A comparative study with another group iterative scheme derived from the centred difference formula is also presented. A detailed performance analysis of the parallel implementations of both group methods will be reported and discussed.     

New explicit group iterative methods in the solution of two dimensional hyperbolic equations

In this paper, we present the development of new explicit group relaxation methods which solve the two dimensional second order hyperbolic telegraph equation subject to specific initial and Dirichlet boundary conditions. The explicit group methods use small fixed group formulations derived from a combination of the rotated five-point finite difference approximation together with the centered five-point centered difference approximation on different grid spacings. The resulting schemes involve three levels finite difference approximations with second order accuracies. Analyses are presented to confirm the unconditional stability of the difference schemes. Numerical experimentations are also conducted to compare the new methods with some existing schemes.     

Generalized and Improved （G＇/G）-Expansion Method Combined with Jacobi Elliptic Equation

In this article, we propose an alternative approach of the generalized and improved （G＇/G）-expansion method and build some new exact traveling wave solutions of three nonlinear evolution equations, namely the Boiti- Leon-Pempinelle equation, the Pochhammer-Chree equations and the Painleve integrable Burgers equation with free parameters. When the free parameters receive particular values, solitary wave solutions are constructed from the traveling waves. We use the Jacob/elliptic equation as an auxiliary equation in place of the second order linear equation. It is established that the proposed algorithm offers a further influential mathematical tool for constructing exact solutions of nonlinear evolution equations.
