case II diffusion of a penetrant through a polymer matrix is characterized by constant front speed. Hence, a traveling-wave analysis is appropriate for the model equations. For the previously validated model analyzed here, conditions on the molecular and stress diffusion coefficients are obtained which guarantee the existence of a traveling wave. Conditions are derived under which an interior m...

In this paper, we derive a delayed reaction-diffusion equation to describe a two-species predator-prey system with diffusion terms and stage structure. By coupling the uniformly approximate approach with the method of upper and lower solutions, we prove that the traveling wave fronts exist, which connect the zero solution with the positive steady state. Finally, we draw a conclusion that the ex...

We show that finite external excitation can lead to a traveling wave in an excitable passive optical system with one-dimensional space geometry. We have studied the excitable behavior of this system in parallel with that of its diffusive counterpart and show the effects of optical phase on the traveling-wave solution and its velocity. In two-dimensional space we observe numerically rotating opt...

We study the traveling wave solutions for a system of coupled KdV equations derived by Lou et al [11]. In that paper, they found 5 types of Painlevé integrable systems for the coupled KdV system. We show that each of them can be reduced to a partially or completely uncoupled system, through which the dynamical behavior of traveling wave solutions can be determined. In some parameter regions, ex...

In the present paper, we get exact solutions of Magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) of the fractionalized three-dimensional flow of Newtonian fluid with porous and heat transfer through the traveling wave parameter. The governing equations are produced dependent on established Navier-stokes equations which can be diminished to ordinary differential equation by wave parameter ξ=ax+by+nz+Utα/Γ(α...

We obtain existence of traveling wave solutions for a class of spatially discrete systems, namely lattice di erential equations. Uniqueness of the wave speed c, and uniqueness of the solution with c 6= 0, are also shown. More generally, the global structure of the set of all traveling wave solutions is shown to be a smooth manifold where c 6= 0. Convergence results for solutions are obtained at...

We study the traveling wave front solutions for a two-dimensional periodic lattice dynamical system with monostable nonlinearity. We first show that there is a minimal speed such that a traveling wave solution exists if and only if its speed is above this minimal speed. Then we prove that any wave profile is strictly monotone. Finally, we derive the convergence of discretized minimal speed to t...

The FitzHugh-Nagumo equations have been used as a caricature of the Hodgkin-Huxley equations of neuron firing and to capture, qualitatively, the general properties of an excitable membrane. In this paper, we utilize a modified version of the FitzHugh-Nagumo equations to model the spatial propagation of neuron firing; we assume that this propagation is (at least, partially) caused by the cross-d...
