The travelling wave solutions for non-linear initial-value problems using the homotopy perturbation method

摘要

In this article, we have used the homotopy perturbation method (HPM) to find the travelling wave solutions for some non-linear initial-value problems in the mathematical physics. These problems consist of the Burgers-Fisher equation, the Kuramoto-Sivashinsky equation, the coupled Schordinger KdV equations and the long-short wave resonance equations together with initial conditions. The results of these problems reveal that the HPM is very powerful, effective, convenient and quite accurate to the systems of non-linear equations. It is predicted that this method can be found widely applicable in engineering and physics.
