Abstract
The coupled Burgers’ equation is a fundamental partial differential equation with applications in various scientific fields. Finding accurate solutions to this equation is crucial for understanding physical phenomena and mathematical models. While different methods have been explored, this work highlights the importance of the G-Laplace transform. The G-transform is effective in solving a wide range of non-constant coefficient differential equations, setting it apart from the Laplace, Sumudu, and Elzaki transforms. Consequently, it stands as a powerful tool for addressing differential equations characterized by variable coefficients. By applying this transformative approach, the study provides reliable and exact solutions for both homogeneous and non-homogeneous coupled Burgers’ equations. This innovative technique offers a valuable tool for gaining deeper insights into this equation’s behavior and significance in diverse disciplines.
1. Introduction
The Burgers’ equation is a fundamental partial differential equation and convection–diffusion equation occurring in various areas of applied mathematics, such as fluid mechanics, nonlinear acoustics, gas dynamics, and traffic flow. The solution to this equation is quite important for mathematical models and physical phenomena. Several scientists have suggested analytical solutions to the one-dimensional coupled Burgers’ equation. Many analytical methods have been produced to obtain the solution to Burgers’ equation, see [1,2,3]. In their work [4], the authors employed the space–time Sinc–collocation method to address the fourth-order nonlocal heat model arising in viscoelasticity. Nonlinear terms were handled using the MacCormack method, while the Riemann–Liouville (R–L) fractional integral term was managed through the second-order convolution quadrature formula, as outlined in [5]. Furthermore, they discussed the modified Burgers’ model with nonlocal dynamic properties and utilized an implicit robust difference method with graded meshes, as elaborated in [6]. Additionally, in their study [7], the authors established the theory that the L1 scheme is effective in solving time-fractional partial differential equations with non-smooth data. In recent years, significant effort has been devoted to applying the Laplace decomposition method (LDM) and its modifications to study physical model equations [8]. The exact solution of the Burgers’ equation has been given in [9], employing the Adomian Decomposition method, and the authors of [10,11] offered a modified, expanded tanh-function method to receive its exact solution. The researchers in [12] suggested the homotopy perturbation method to achieve the exact solution of the nonlinear Burgers’ equation. Ref. [13] introduced a groundbreaking approach that combined the Laplace transform and new homotopy perturbation method (NHPM) for obtaining closed-form solutions of coupled viscous Burgers’ equations. This study holds significant importance as it sheds light on the understanding of polydispersity and its connection to gravity effects [14]. The study of coupled Burgers’ equations is paramount because it explains the precipitation of polydispersity commentary down to the effect of gravity [14]. The authors of [15,16] discussed the solution of the time-fractional two-mode coupled Burgers’ equation. G-transform was first proposed in [17] and later applied to solve certain nonlinear dynamical models with a non-integer order in [18].
The main goal of this work is to apply the G-Laplace transform in order to secure exact solutions with high reliability for homogeneous and nonhomogeneous coupled Burgers’ equations.
2. Some Basic Idea of the -Laplace Transforms
