Traveling Waves for the Whitham Equation
The existence of traveling waves for the original Whitham equation is investigated. This equation combines a generic nonlinear quadratic term with the exact linear dispersion relation of surface water waves of finite depth. It is found that there exist small-amplitude periodic traveling waves with sub-critical speeds. As the period of these traveling waves tends to infinity, their velocities ap...
متن کاملPeriodic and Solitary Wave Solutions to the Fornberg-Whitham Equation
In this paper, new travelling wave solutions to the Fornberg-Whitham equation ut − uxxt + ux + uux = uuxxx + 3uxuxx are investigated. They are characterized by two parameters. The expresssions of the periodic and solitary wave solutions are obtained.
متن کاملThe Whitham principle for multikink solutions of reaction-diffusion equations
An useful strategy for the study of nonlinear partial differential equations (PDE) arising in pattern formation is to consider asymptotic solutions containing one or several localized defects and to simplify the dynamics by finding the equations of motion of the system of interacting defects. The great advantage of this approach is that we are dealing with ordinary differential equations (ODEs)...
متن کاملPulses and waves for a bistable nonlocal reaction-diffusion equation
A bistable nonlocal reaction-diffusion equation is studied. Solutions in the form of simple and periodic travelling waves, single and multiple pulses are observed in numerical simulations. Successive transitions from simple waves to periodic waves and to stable pulses are described.
متن کاملThe effects of unequal diffusion coefficients on periodic travelling waves in oscillatory reaction–diffusion systems
Many oscillatory biological systems show periodic travelling waves. These are often modelled using coupled reaction–diffusion equations. However, the effects of different movement rates (diffusion coefficients) of the interacting components on the predictions of these equations are largely unknown. Here we investigate the ways in which varying the diffusion coefficients in such equations alters...
