solitons are ubiquitous and exist in almost every area from sky to bottom. for solitons to appear, the relevant equation of motion must be nonlinear. in the present study, we deal with the korteweg-devries (kdv), modi ed korteweg-de vries (mkdv) and regularised longwave (rlw) equations using homotopy perturbation method (hpm). the algorithm makes use of the hpm to determine the initial expansio...

In this paper, we find the relationship between the solution of (1+1)-dimensional Korteweg-de Vries (KdV) equation and the solution of (2+1)-dimensional integrable Schwarz-Korteweg-de Vries(SKdV) equation with Möbius transformations, Miura transformation and other transformations. Furthermore, we can obtain the new solution of the SKdV equation in 2+1 dimensions by using the solution of KdV equ...

A mixture of liquid and gas bubbles of the same size may be considered as an example of a classic nonlinear medium. In practice, analysis of propagation of the pressure waves in a liquid with gas bubbles is important problem. We know that there are solitary and periodic waves in a mixture of a liquid and gas bubbles and these waves can be described by nonlinear partial differential equations. A...

The integrable 3rd-order Korteweg-de Vries (KdV) equation emerges uniquely at linear order in the asymptotic expansion for unidirectional shallow water waves. However, at quadratic order, this asymptotic expansion produces an entire family of shallow water wave equations that are asymptotically equivalent to each other, under a group of nonlinear, nonlocal, normal-form transformations introduce...

Solitons are ubiquitous and exist in almost every area from sky to bottom. For solitons to appear, the relevant equation of motion must be nonlinear. In the present study, we deal with the Korteweg-deVries (KdV), Modied Korteweg-de Vries (mKdV) and Regularised LongWave (RLW) equations using Homotopy Perturbation method (HPM). The algorithm makes use of the HPM to determine the initial expansion...

In the past three decades, traveling wave solutions to the Korteweg–de Vries equation have been studied extensively and a large number of theoretical issues concerning the KdV equation have received considerable attention. These wave solutions when they exist can enable us to well understand the mechanism of the complicated physical phenomena and dynamical processes modeled by these nonlinear e...

Solitary water waves are long nonlinear waves that can propagate steadily over long distances. They were first observed by Russell in 1837 in a now famous report [26] on his observations of a solitary wave propagating along a Scottish canal, and on his subsequent experiments. Some forty years later theoretical work by Boussinesq [8] and Rayleigh [25] established an analytical model. Then in 189...

In this article, we establish new results about the ill-posedness of the Cauchy problem for the modified Korteweg-de Vries and the defocusing modified Korteweg-de Vries equations, in the periodic case. The lack of local well-posedness is in the sense that the dependence of solutions upon initial data fails to be continuous. We also develop a method for obtaining ill-posedness results in the per...

We prove that the Korteweg-de Vries initial-value problem is globally well-posed in H−3/4(R) and the modified Korteweg-de Vries initial-value problem is globally well-posed in H1/4(R). The new ingredient is that we use directly the contraction principle to prove local well-posedness for KdV equation at s = −3/4 by constructing some special resolution spaces in order to avoid some ’logarithmic d...
