The complex -symmetric nonlinear wave models have drawn much attention in recent years since the complex -symmetric extensions of the Korteweg-de Vries (KdV) equation were presented in 2007. In this review, we focus on the study of the complex -symmetric nonlinear Schrödinger equation and Burgers equation. First of all, we briefly introduce the basic property of complex symmetry. We then report...

This paper discusses the applications of linear and nonlinear shallow water wave equations in practical tsunami simulations. We verify which hydrodynamic theory would be most appropriate for different ocean depths. The linear and nonlinear shallow water wave equations in describing tsunami wave propagation are compared for the China Sea. There is a critical zone between 400 and 500 m depth for ...

Abstract. Very steep waves constitute an essentially nonlinear and complicated phenomenon. Inter-related experimental and theoretical efforts are thus required to gain a better understanding of their generation and propagation mechanisms. A nonlinear focusing process in which a single unidirectional steep wave emerges from an initially wide amplitudeand frequency-modulated wave group at a predi...

By using the quantum hydrodynamic and Maxwell equations, we derive the generalized nonlinear electron magnetohydrodynamic, the generalized nonlinear Hall-MHD HMHD , and the generalized nonlinear dust HMHD equations in a self-gravitating dense magnetoplasma. Our nonlinear equations include the self-gravitating, the electromagnetic, the quantum statistical electron pressure, as well as the quantu...

Singular vector (SV) analysis has proved to be helpful in understanding the linear instability properties of various types of flows. SVs are the perturbations with the largest amplification rate over a given time interval when linearizing the equations of a model along a particular solution. However, the linear approximation necessary to derive SVs has strong limitations and does not take into ...

An exciting and extremely active area of research investigation during the past years has been the study of solitons and the related issue of the construction of solutions to a wide class of nonlinear equations. The concept of solitons has now become umbiquitous in modern nonlinear science and indeed can be found in various branches of physics. In nonlinear wave propagation through continuous m...

One effect of nonlinear elasticity on elastic wave propagation is that the velocity of the elastic wave is a function of the applied stress on the material. This effect has been used to characterize the nonlinear elastic properties of numerous materials and is also important in attempts to nondestructively characterize residual and applied stress in materials. In addition, investigations have e...

We investigate the occurrence and dynamics of rogue waves using largescale, three-dimensional, phase-resolved simulations. The direct simulations are based on a high-order spectral method. The method resolves the phases of a large number (up to O(10)) of wave modes, and accounts for nonlinear interactions among them up to an arbitrary high order. Significantly, the simulations obtain exponentia...
