The unsmooth boundary will greatly affect motion morphology of a shallow water wave, and a fractal space is introduced to establish a generalized KdV-Burgers equation with fractal derivatives. The semi-inverse method is used to establish a fractal variational formulation of the problem, which provides conservation laws in an energy form in the fractal space and possible solution structures of t...

This paper concerns the inverse problem of retrieving the principal coefficient in a Korteweg-de Vries (KdV) equation from boundary measurements of a single solution. The Lipschitz stability of this inverse problem is obtained using a new global Carleman estimate for the linearized KdV equation. The proof is based on the Bukhgĕım-Klibanov method.

By considering the set of coupled KdV differential equations as a zero curvature representation of some fourth order linear differential equation and factorizing the linear differential equation, the hierarchy of solutions of the coupled KdV differential equations have been obtained from the eigen spectrum of constant potentials.

We present a simplified one-dimensional model for pulse wave propagation through fluid-filled tubes with elastic walls, which takes into account the elasticity of the wall as well as the tapering effect. The spatial dynamics in this model is governed by a variable coefficient KdV equation with conditions given at the inflow site. We discuss an existence theory for the associated evolution equat...

The N = 2 supersymmetric KdV equations are studied within the framework of Hirota’s bilinear method. For two such equations, namely N = 2, a = 4 and N = 2, a = 1 supersymmetric KdV equations, we obtain the corresponding bilinear formulations. Using them, we construct particular solutions for both cases. In particular, a bilinear Bäcklund transformation is given for the N = 2, a = 1 supersymmetr...

We consider in this paper the well-posedness for the Cauchy problem associated to two-dimensional dispersive systems of Boussinesq type which model weakly nonlinear long wave surface waves. We emphasize the case of the strongly dispersive ones with focus on the “KdV-KdV” system which possesses the strongest dispersive properties and which is a vector two-dimensional extension of the classical K...

In this work, we develop two new (3+1)-dimensional KdV–Calogero–Bogoyavlenskii–Schiff (KdV-CBS) equation and negative-order KdV-CBS (nKdV-nCBS) equation. The newly developed equations pass the Painlevé integrability test via examining compatibility conditions for each model. We examine dispersion relation derive multiple soliton solutions

The object of this article is the comparison of numerical solutions of the so-called Whitham equation describing wave motion at the surface of a perfect fluid to numerical approximations of solutions of the full Euler free-surface water-wave problem. The Whitham equation ηt + 3 2 c0 h0 ηηx +Kh0∗ ηx = 0 was proposed by Whitham [33] as an alternative to the KdV equation for the description of sur...

Soliton damping in weakly dissipative media has been studied for several decades, usually using the asymptotic theory of the slowly-varying solitary wave solution of the Korteweg-de Vries (KdV) equation. Damping then occurs according to the energy balance equation, and a shelf is generated behind the soliton. Various examples of this process have been given by Ott & Sudan (1970) Pelinovsky (197...

Darboux transformation is reconsidered for the supersymmetric KdV system. By iterating the Darboux transformation, a supersymmetric extension of the Crum transformation is obtained for the Manin-Radul SKdV equation, in doing so one gets Wronskian superdeterminant representations for the solutions. Particular examples provide us explicit supersymmetric extensions, super solitons, of the standard...
