High accuracy solutions for the Pochhammer–Chree equation in elastic media

Abstract

This study investigates the nonlinear Pochhammer–Chree equation, a model crucial for understanding wave propagation in elastic rods, through the application of the Khater III method. The research aims to derive precise analytical solutions and validate them using He’s variational iteration method (VIM). The Pochhammer–Chree equation’s relationship to other nonlinear evolution equations, such as the Korteweg-de Vries and nonlinear Schrödinger equations, underscores its significance in the field of nonlinear wave dynamics. The methodology employs the Khater III method for deriving analytical solutions, while He’s VIM serves as a numerical validation tool, ensuring the accuracy and stability of the obtained results. This dual approach not only yields novel solutions but also provides a robust framework for analyzing complex wave phenomena in elastic media. The findings of this study have significant implications for material science and engineering applications, offering new insights into the behavior of waves in elastic rods. By bridging the gap between theoretical models and practical applications, this research contributes to the advancement of both mathematical theory and physical understanding of nonlinear wave dynamics. Situated within the domain of applied mathematics, with a focus on nonlinear wave equations, this work exemplifies the interdisciplinary nature of contemporary research in mathematical physics. The results presented herein open new avenues for future investigations in related fields and highlight the potential for innovative applications in material science and engineering.
