Soliton solutions of the generalized Davey-Stewartson equation with full nonlinearities via three integrating schemes

Abstract

This paper considers the generalized Davey-Stewartson equation that is used to investigate the dynamics of wave propagation in water of finite depth under the effects of gravity force and surface tension. The model is considered in the presence of full nonlinearity. The main objective of this paper is to extract soliton solutions of the generalized Davey-Stewartson equation. Three state-of-the-art integration schemes, namely exp(-Φ(ξ))-expansion method, the first integral method and the Sine-Gordon expansion method have been employed for obtaining the desired soliton solutions. The proposed methods successfully attain different structures of explicit solutions such as bright, dark, singular, rational and periodic solitary wave solutions. All the newly found solutions are discussed with their existence criteria. The 2D and 3D portraits are also shown for some of the reported solutions.
