Abstract In this paper, we present distinct types of exact wave soliton solutions of an important fluid flow dynamic system called the truncated M-fractional (1+1)-dimensional nonlinear Boussinesq-Burgers system (BBS). This model is used to explain ocean waves, matter-wave pulses, waves in ferromagnetic media, the proliferation of waves in shallow water, etc. We transform the nonlinear fractional system into a nonlinear ordinary differential equation by using a fractional transformation to obtain dark, bright, singular, dark-bright, dark-singular, bright-singular and periodic type solitons solutions by employing the modified extended tanh function method (METhFM). The use of fractional derivatives makes the solutions different from the existing solutions. The obtained results are useful in the optical fibers, fluid dynamics, ocean engineering and other related fields. To visualize the system’s behavior, some of the solutions are represented by two- and three-dimensional graphs which are obtained and verified with the help of Mathematica. The achieved results provide a better understanding of the behavior of the nonlinear fractional partial differential equations and the dynamics of BBS, which are not present in the literature and are helpful in future studies of the concerned system.
