چکیده

The initial boundary-value problem for the Korteweg–de Vries (KdV) equation on the negative quarter-plane, x < 0 and t > 0, is considered. The formulation of this problem is different to the usual initial boundary-value problem on the positive quarter-plane, for which x > 0 and t > 0. Two boundary conditions are required at x = 0 for the negative quarter-plane problem, in contrast to the one boundary condition needed at x = 0 for the positive quarter-plane problem. Solutions of the KdV equation on the infinite line, such as the soliton, cnoidal wave, mean height variation and undular bore solution, are used to find approximate solutions to the negative quarter-plane problem. Five qualitatively different types of solution are found, depending on the relation between the initial and boundary values. Excellent comparisons are obtained between these solutions and full numerical solutions of the KdV equation.

An initial-boundary value problem for the Korteweg-de Vries equation on the negative quarter-plane

In this paper, we consider an initial-boundary value problem for the Kortewegde Vries equation on the negative quarter-plane. The normalized Korteweg-de Vries equation considered is given by uτ + uux + uxxx = 0, x < 0, τ > 0, where x and τ represent dimensionless distance and time respectively. In particular, we consider the case when the initial and boundary conditions are given by u(x, 0) = u...

A Novel Approach for Korteweg-de Vries Equation of Fractional Order

In this study, the localfractional variational iterationmethod (LFVIM) and the localfractional series expansion method (LFSEM) are utilized to obtain approximate solutions for Korteweg-de Vries equation (KdVE) within local fractionalderivative operators (LFDOs). The efficiency of the considered methods is illustrated by some examples. The results reveal that the suggested algorithms are very ef...

Forced Oscillations of a Damped Korteweg-de Vries Equation in a Quarter Plane

Laboratory experiments have shown that when nonlinear, dispersive waves are forced periodically from one end of an undisturbed stretch of the medium of propagation, the signal eventually becomes temporally periodic at each spatial point. It is our purpose here to establish this as a fact at least in the context of a damped Korteweg-de Vries equation. Thus, consideration is given to the initial-...
