Understanding Partial Differential Equations

چکیده

 In this paper, we present "a posteriori" analysis of the fundamental concepts involved in the modelling of problems of mathematical physics by Partial Differential Equations (PDEs). Our aim is to improve our students' understanding of PDEs when applied to an engineering problem, from a completely qualitative point of view. They should be able to understand the deep meaning of any Laplacian, curl, divergence, or gradient operator, as well as other differential terms, when appearing in any particular equation, besides its usefulness to model reality. Index Terms  Partial differential equation, modelling, Laplacian, divergence, curl.

Topological soliton solutions of the some nonlinear partial differential equations

In this paper, we obtained the 1-soliton solutions of the symmetric regularized long wave (SRLW) equation and the (3+1)-dimensional shallow water wave equations. Solitary wave ansatz method is used to carry out the integration of the equations and obtain topological soliton solutions The physical parameters in the soliton solutions are obtained as functions of the dependent coefficients. Note t...

Simulation of Singular Fourth- Order Partial Differential Equations Using the Fourier Transform Combined With Variational Iteration Method

In this paper, we present a comparative study between the modified variational iteration method (MVIM) and a hybrid of Fourier transform and variational iteration method (FTVIM). The study outlines the efficiencyand convergence of the two methods. The analysis is illustrated by investigating four singular partial differential equations with variable coefficients. The solution of singular partia...

On the Exact Solution for Nonlinear Partial Differential Equations

In this study, we aim to construct a traveling wave solution for nonlinear partial differential equations. In this regards, a cosine-function method is used to find and generate the exact solutions for three different types of nonlinear partial differential equations such as general regularized long wave equation (GRLW), general Korteweg-de Vries equation (GKDV) and general equal width wave equ...

On The Simulation of Partial Differential Equations Using the Hybrid of Fourier Transform and Homotopy Perturbation Method

In the present work, a hybrid of Fourier transform and homotopy perturbation method is developed for solving the non-homogeneous partial differential equations with variable coefficients. The Fourier transform is employed with combination of homotopy perturbation method (HPM), the so called Fourier transform homotopy perturbation method (FTHPM) to solve the partial differential equations. The c...
