A scaled characteristics method for the asymptotic solution of weakly nonlinear wave equations ∗

چکیده
We formulate a multi-scale perturbation technique to asymptotically solve weakly nonlinear hyperbolic equations. The method is based on a set of scaled characteristic coordinates. We show that this technique leads to a simplified system of ordinary differential equations describing the weakly nonlinear interaction between left and right running waves. Using this method, a uniformly valid first order solution of a prototype nonlinear equation is derived.

We prove the existence and uniqueness of solutions of weakly non-linear wave equations in the region x > 0; t > 0 under arbitrary initial and boundary conditions. We also establish the asymptotic validity of formal perturbation approximations to the solutions. The asymptotics of these equations require two slow scales, one spatial, one temporal. We formulate a multiple-scale perturbation proced...

In this paper, a matrix based method is considered for the solution of a class of nonlinear Volterra integral equations with a kernel of the general form $s^{beta}(t-s)^{-alpha}G(y(s))$ based on the Tau method. In this method, a transformation of the independent variable is first introduced in order to obtain a new equation with smoother solution. Error analysis of this method is also ...

In this study, we aim to construct a traveling wave solution for nonlinear partial differential equations.

In this paper we investigate the exact peroidic wave shock solutions of the Burgers equations. Our purpose is to describe the asymptotic behavior of the solution in the cauchy problem for viscid equation with small parametr ε and to discuss in particular the case of periodic wave shock. We show that the solution of this problem approaches the shock type solution for the cauchy problem of the in...
