Analysis of Generalized Boussinesq Coupled Equations Using Lie Symmetry
Subject area: Science,Engineering and Technology · Area of research: Mathematics
Abstract
In the last decades, Nonlinear partial differential equations (NPDEs) have become es- sential tools to model complex phenomena that arise in different aspects of science and engineering such as hydrodynamics. Therefore, constructing exact and approximate so- lutions of NLPDEs is of great importance in mathematical sciences. Previously authors have done similar work with restriction of K and L to be one. In this paper we solve the generalized Boussinesq coupled equations: ut + Kvx + Luux = 0; K > 0, L > 0 vt + uvx + uxxx = 0 using Lie symmetry of differential equations where u = u(x, t) is the velocity of water and v = v(x, t) the total depth of water and subscripts denote partial derivatives. The positive constants K,L would enable further analysis of optimal water depth and velocity be determined.
