Exact solutions for nonlinear partial differential equations via Exp‐function method

Abstract

AbstractIn this article, the Exp‐function method is applied to nonlinear Burgers equation and special fifth‐order partial differential equation. Using this method, we obtain exact solutions for these equations. The method is straightforward and concise, and its applications are promising. This method can be used as an alternative to obtain analytical and approximate solutions of different types of nonlinear differential equations. © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
