THERMAL SCIENCE, Year 015, Vol. 19, No. 4, pp. 1183-1187 1183 IMPROVED HYPERBOLIC FUNCTION METHOD AND EXACT SOLUTIONS FOR VARIABLE COEFFICIENT BENJAMIN-BONA-MAHONY-BURGERS EQUATION by Hong-Cai MA a,b*, Xiao-Fang PENG a, and Dan-Dan YAO a a Deparmen of Applied Mahemaics, Donghua Universiy, Shanghai, China b Deparmen of Mahemaics and Saisics, Universiy of Souh Florida, Tampa, Fla., USA Original scienific paper DOI: 10.98/TSCI1504183M By using he improved hyperbolic funcion mehod, we invesigae he variable coefficien Benjamin-Bona-Mahony-Burgers equaion which is very imporan in fluid mechanics. Some exac soluions are obained. Under some condiions, he periodic wave leads o he kink-like wave. Key words: Benjamin-Bona-Mahony-Burgers equaion, exac soluions, hyperbolic funcion mehod Inroducion Nowadays, non-linear parial differenial equaions (NLPDE) are becoming more and more imporan, especially heir broad applicaions on modeling many physical phenomena. For insance, solid sae physics, fluid mechanics, and so on [1]. I is very valuable o do some research on how o solve NLPDE exac soluions and invesigae he propery of he soluions. The Benjamin-Bona-Mahony-Burgers (BBMB) equaion: u u αu uu u = 0 xx xx x x is proposed as a model o sudy he unidirecional long waves of small ampliudes in waer, which is an alernaive o he KdV equaion []. I is an imporan model in fluid mechanics. In his paper we will sudy he variable coefficien BBMB equaion: u λ() u α() u β() uu γ() u = 0 (1) xx xx x x λ(), α(), β(), and γ () are arbirary ime-dependen coefficiens. If α() = 0, λ() = 1, and γ() = 1, eq. (1) is an alernaive o he regularized long wave equaion proposed by Benjamin e al. [3] and Peregrine [4]. The variable coefficien BBMB eq. (1) [5] is proposed o describe long waves of small ampliudes broadcasing in non-linear dispersive media. This model has been inroduced [6], which plays a very imporan role in mahemaics and fluid. During he pas few years, numerous mehods in solving BBMB equaions have been discovered by many auhors, such as G'/G mehod, homoopy analysis mehod, He' mehod, ec. [7, 8]. * Corresponding auhor; e-mail: hongcaima@dhu.edu.cn
1184 THERMAL SCIENCE, Year 015, Vol. 19, No. 4, pp. 1183-1187 Hyperbolic funcion mehod was firs proposed in [9], which is based on he facha mos soliary wave soluions have form of hyperbolic funcion. This mehod has been used o find he exac soluions of many non-linear wave equaions, such as Burgers' equaion, KdV equaion, ec. [9, 10]. Improved hyperbolic funcion mehod For parial differenial equaion (PDE) of wo independen variables x, : P(, x, ux, u, u xx,...) = 0 () we consider is raveling wave soluion of he form: ux (, ) = ϕ( ξ), ξ = kx ( ) c() l (3) k(x) and c() are funcions of single variable. By using his raveling wave ransacion, we can change non-linear PDE eq. () o a variable coefficien differenial equaion (VCDE). Supposing hahe soluion of his VCDE is: m m i i i= 0 j= 1 j 1 φξ ( ) = af bf g (4) j f 1 sinhξ =, g = cosh ξ r cosh ξ r (5) and a i, b j, and r are coefficiens o be deermined. m can be deermined by balancing [11] he highes order derivaives and highes order non-linear erms appearing in VCDE, wha's more: f = fg, g = 1 g rf, g = 1 rf ( r 1) f (6) ξ ξ By subsiuing eq. (4) ino eq. (), and using eq. (5) o simplify he VCDE unil i only involves exponenial erm of f and g (he degree of g is less han 1). Then combining he similar erms of f and g, we will esablish a se of equaion. By solving his se of equaion, he exac soluion of eq. () will be obained. Obain exac soluion of BBMB equaion by improved hyperbolic funcion mehod Firsly, we consider he following ransformaions: ux (, ) = ϕ( ξ), ξ = kx ( ) c ( ) l (7) kx ( ), c () are arbirary funcions. Subsiuing eq. (7) ino eq. (1) we have he equaion: [ c () α() k ( x) γ()] ϕ ( ξ) [ λ() c () k ( x) α() k ( x)] ϕ ( ξ) β( k ) ( x) ϕ( ξ)( ξ) λ( c ) ( k ) ( x) ϕ ( ξ) = 0 (8) By using eq. (4) and balancing he highes order derivaives and highes order nonlinear erms appearing in eq. (8), we ge m = 1. Thus we have:
THERMAL SCIENCE, Year 015, Vol. 19, No. 4, pp. 1183-1187 1185 φξ ( ) = a0 a1f g (9) By subsiuing eq. (9) ino eq. (8), simplifying he eq. (8) unil i only involves exponenial erm of f and g (he degree of g is less han 1), by supposing heir coefficien equal o zero, we obain he sysem: (1) ( r 1)( r 1) λ( ) c ( ) k ( x) = 0 () ( r 1)( r 1){ a1λ() c () k "( x) ab 1 1() k ( x) [ a1α() 1 br 1 λ() c ()] k ( x)} = 0 (3) [3 ar 1 λ( ) c ( ) (1 r ) α( )] k ( x) [(3 ar 1 a0 ar 0 ) β( ) (1 r ) γ( )] k ( x) [3 ar 1 α( ) (7r 4) λ() c ()] k ( x) (1 r ) c () = 0 (4) [ brc 1 () br 1 α() a1λ() c ()] k ( x) [ a0rβ() ab 1 1β() br 1 γ()] k ( x) [ a1α( ) br 1 λ( ) c ( )] k ( x) brc 1 ( ) = 0 (5) [ br 1 λ() c () a1α()] k ( x) [( r a0a1) β() a 1 γ ()] k ( x) [ a1γ( ) c ( ) br 1 α( )] k ( x) a1c ( ) = 0 (6) ( r 1) λ( ) c ( ) k ( x) ( r a1 ) β( ) k ( x) [ ( r 1) α( ) 6 a1rλ( ) c ( )] k ( x) = 0 (7) a1 ( r 1)( r 1) λ( ) c ( ) k ( x) = 0 Solving his sysem by Maple gives he following resuls: (1) When λ () = 0, we obain: β () k ( x) = (10) α() 1 ( 1) 1 a =± r b (11) γ() β() a0β () () = (1) c α() Equaion (10) indicaes ha β ( )/ α ( ) mus be a consan: β() = cα(), k ( x) = bc, c () = bc [ γ() a β()] 1 1 1 1 1 0 We obain he soluion of variable coefficien BBMB eq.

1186 THERMAL SCIENCE, Year 015, Vol. 19, No. 4, pp. 1183-1187 Figure 1 shows a special soluion of eq.

Since γ() and β() are ime dependen periodic funcion, wave velociy (boh size and direcion) periodically changes over ime. () When a 1 = r = 0, we have: Figure 1. a ( ) () 0 = 1, b 1 = c 1 = r =, l = 0, γ() = cos, β k x = (14) and β() = sin α( ) γ() β() a0β () c () = (15) α( ) Equaion (14) indicaes ha β()/α() mus be a consan. Then, we have: kx ( ) = cx, c () = c [ γ() a0β()]d The soluion of variable coefficien BBMB equaion eq. (1) is: sinh[ k( x) c( ) l] ux (, ) = a0 (16) r cosh[ k( x) c( ) l] Figure. a 0 = b 1 = 1, c =, l = 0, γ() = cos, and β() = sin kx ( ) = cx c () = c [ γ() a0β()]d and a 0, b 1, and c are consans. Figure shows a special soluion when we suppose ha: a0 = = 1, c =, l = 0, γ() = cos, β() = sin From he figure we can see hahe ampliude of he wave end o be a consan over ime in he process of ransmission. Conclusions In his aricle, he improved hyperbolic funcion mehod is uilized o find he soluions of he variable coefficien BBMB equaion. I is very imporan in fluid mechanics. As we
