The edge of chaos is analyzed in a spatially extended system, modeled by the regularized long-wave equation, prior to the transition to permanent spatiotemporal chaos. In the presence of coexisting attractors, a chaotic saddle is born at the basin boundary due to a smooth-fractal metamorphosis. As a control parameter is varied, the chaotic transient evolves to well-developed transient turbulenc...

The Lagrangian density for the regularized-long-wave equation (also known as the BBM equation) is presented. Using the trial function technique, ordinary differential equations that describe the time dependence of the position of the peaks, amplitudes, and widths for the collision of two solitary waves are obtained. These equations are analyzed in the Born and “equal-width” approximations and c...

Fredholm integral equations with the right-hand side having singularities at the endpoints are considered. The singularities are moved into the kernel that is subsequently regularized by a suitable one-to-one map. The Nyström method is applied to the regularized equation. The convergence, stability and well conditioning of the method is proved in spaces of weighted continuous functions. The spe...

The paper presents the optimal homotopy perturbation method, which is a new method to find approximate analytical solutions for nonlinear partial differential equations. Based on the well-known homotopy perturbation method, the optimal homotopy perturbation method presents an accelerated convergence compared to the regular homotopy perturbation method. The applications presented emphasize the h...

In this paper, we study a numerical simulation method for the initial-boundary problem of dissipative of the generalized symmetric regularized long-wave equations with damping term. A nonlinear-implicit Crank-Nicolson finite difference scheme is constructed. The scheme is a twoleveled scheme. The error estimations, convergence, stablity and uniqueness of the solution are proven by discrete ener...

In this paper, we find the exact solutions of some nonlinear evolution equations by using ( ′ G )expansion method. Four nonlinear models of physical significance i.e. the symmetric regularized longwave equation, the Klein-Gordon-Zakharov equations, the Burgers-Kadomtsev-Petviashvili equation and the nonlinear Schrödinger equation with a cubic nonlinearity are considered and obtained their exact...

A minimum effort optimal control problem for the undamped wave equation is considered which involves L∞–control costs. Since the problem is non-differentiable a regularized problem is introduced. Uniqueness of the solution of the regularized problem is proven and the convergence of the regularized solutions is analyzed. Further, a semi-smooth Newton method is formulated to solve the regularized...

The present investigation deals with the propagation of waves in the layer of an anisotropic fibre reinforced thermoelastic solid. Secular equations for symmetric and skew-symmetric modes of wave propagation in completely separate terms are derived. The amplitude of displacements and temperature distribution were also obtained. Finally, the numerical solution was carried out for Cobalt material...
