Abstract

In this paper, we obtain exact solutions of two nonlinear evolution equations, namely the modified Kortweg de Vries equation and the higher-order modified Boussinesq equation with damping term. The method employed to obtain the exact solutions is the (G � /G)-expansion method. Traveling wave solutions of three types are obtained

Summary

Introduction

This paper showed that the (G /G)expansion method is an effective method for finding exact solutions of nonlinear evolution equations. The key ideas of the method are that the traveling wave solutions of a complicated nonlinear evolution equation can be constructed by means of various solutions of a second-order linear ordinary differential equation [ ]. We derive the traveling wave solutions of the two equations by using the (G /G)-expansion method.
