In this paper, a new fractional sub-equation method is proposed for finding exact solutions of fractional partial differential equations (FPDEs) in the sense of modified Riemann-Liouville derivative. With the aid of symbolic computation, we choose the space-time fractional Zakharov-Kuznetsov-Benjamin-Bona-Mahony (ZKBBM) equation in mathematical physics with a source to illustrate the validity a...

The propagation of surface waves in a fluid- saturated porous isotropic layer over a semi-infinite homogeneous elastic medium with an irregularity for free and rigid interfaces have been studied. The rectangular irregularity has been taken in the half-space. The dispersion equation for Love waves is derived by simple mathematical techniques followed by Fourier transformations.  It can be seen t...

Abstract: New exact solutions of some important nonlinear partial differential equations in one and two dimensions are obtained by using the direct algebraic method. The applicability of the method is demonstrated by applying it for the equal width wave (EW) equation, modified equal width wave (MEW) equation, improved Korteweg de Vries (IKdV) equation, modified regularized long wave (MRLW) equa...

The existing theory for wave propagation through a soil layer are not compatible with the real soil layers because in the theory the layers are flat and the sub-layers are parallel, while in real the soil layers are not flat and they may not be parallel. Thus, wave propagations through a corrugated interface are so important. In this paper, a two-dimensional SH-wave propagation through a corrug...

Using a traveling wave reduction technique, we have shown that Maccari equation, (2?1)-dimensional nonlinear Schrödinger equation, medium equal width equation, (3?1)-dimensional modified KdV–Zakharov– Kuznetsev equation, (2?1)-dimensional long wave-short wave resonance interaction equation, perturbed nonlinear Schrödinger equation can be reduced to the same family of auxiliary elliptic-like equ...
