چکیده
Soliton interactions for the extended Korteweg-de Vries (KdV) equation are examined. It is shown that the extended KdV equation can be transformed (to its order of approximation) to a higher-order member of the KdV hierarchy of integrable equations. This transformation is used to derive the higher-order, two-soliton solution for the extended KdV equation. Hence it follows that the higher-order solitary-wave collisions are elastic, to the order of approximation of the extended KdV equation. In addition, the higher-order corrections to the phase shifts are found. To examine the exact nature of higher-order, solitary-wave collisions, numerical results for various special cases (including surface waves on shallow water) of the extended KdV equation are presented. The numerical results show evidence of inelastic behaviour well beyond the order of approximation of the extended KdV equation; after collision, a dispersive wavetrain of extremely small amplitude is found behind the smaller, higher-order solitary wave.

We consider an extended Korteweg-de Vries (eKdV) equation, the usual Korteweg-de Vries equation with inclusion of an additional cubic nonlinearity.

Wave group dynamics is studied in the framework of the extended Korteweg-de Vries equation. The nonlinear Schrodinger equation is derived for weakly nonlinear wave packets, and the condition for modulational instability is obtained. It is shown that wave packets are unstable only for a positive sign of the coe cient of the cubic nonlinear term in the extended Korteweg-de Vries equation, and for...
