Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Nonlinear differential equations play a significant role in many real-life phenomena, such as in fluid dynamics, optics, acoustics, plasma physics, engineering, and in many other areas of nonlinear science. Thus, it is incredibly vital to find solutions to these equations in order to understand and interpret the structure modeled by these equations.

However, researchers have developed a variety of analytical and numerical techniques that can be employed to solve nonlinear differential equations. Some of the well-known techniques include the Lie symmetry method, the inverse scattering transformation approach, Ansatz methods, multistep methods, finite difference/element/volume methods, and many other techniques in the literature.

This Special Issue will be devoted to unveiling the most recent progress in obtaining analytical and numerical solutions to nonlinear differential equations via various methods and to stimulating collaborative research activities.

In this study, we discuss the dynamical behaviors and extract new interesting wave soliton solutions of the two significant well-known nonlinear partial differential equations (NPDEs), namely, the Korteweg–de Vries equation (KdVE) and the Jaulent–Miodek hierarchy equation (JMHE). This investigation has applications in pattern recognition, fluid dynamics, neural networks, mechanical systems, ecological systems, control theory, economic systems, bifurcation analysis, and chaotic phenomena. In addition, bifurcation analysis and the chaotic behavior of the KdVE and JMHE are the main issues of the present research. As a result, in this study, we obtain very effective advanced exact traveling wave solutions with the aid of the proposed mathematical method, and the solutions involve rational functions, hyperbolic functions, and trigonometric functions that play a vital role in illustrating and developing the models involving the KdVE and the JMHE. These new exact wave solutions lead to utilizing real problems and give an advanced explanation of our mentioned mathematical models that we did not yet have. Some of the attained solutions of the two equations are graphically displayed with 3D, 2D, and contour panels of different shapes, like periodic, singular periodic, kink, anti-kink, bell, anti-bell, soliton, and singular soliton wave solutions. The solutions obtained in this study of our considered equations can lead to the acceptance of our proposed method, effectively utilized to investigate the solutions for the mathematical models of various important complex problems in natural science and engineering.

In this research, we discussed the different chaotic phenomena, sensitivity analysis, and bifurcation analysis of the planer dynamical system by considering the Galilean transformation to the Lonngren wave equation (LWE) and the (2 + 1)-dimensional stochastic Nizhnik–Novikov–Veselov System (SNNVS). These two important equations have huge applications in the fields of modern physics, especially in the electric signal in data communication for LWE and the mechanical signal in a tunnel diode for SNNVS. A different chaotic nature with an additional perturbed term was also highlighted. Concerning the theory of the planer dynamical system, the bifurcation analysis incorporating phase portraits of the dynamical systems of the declared equations was performed. Additionally, a sensitivity analysis was used to monitor the sensitivity of the mentioned equations. Also, we extracted new, abundant solitary wave structures with the graphical phenomena of the mentioned nonlinear mathematical models. By conducting an expansion method on the abovementioned equations, we generated three types of soliton structures, which are rational function, trigonometric function, and hyperbolic function. By simulating the 3D, contour, and 2D graphs of these obtained solitons, we scrutinized the behavior of the waves affecting the nonlinear terms. The figures show that the solitary waves obtained from LWE are efficient in analyzing electromagnetic wave signals in the cable lines, and the solitary waves from SNNVS are essential in any stochastic system like a sound wave. Moreover, by taking some values of the parameters, we found some interesting soliton shapes, such as compaction soliton, singular periodic solution, bell-shaped soliton, anti-kink-shaped soliton, one-sided kink-shaped soliton, and some flat kink-shaped solitons, etc. This article will have a great impact on nonlinear science due to the new solitary wave structures with different complex phenomena, sensitivity analysis, and bifurcation analysis.

The second partial differential equation from the Kaup–Newell hierarchy is considered. This equation can be employed to model pulse propagation in optical fiber, wave propagation in plasma, or high waves in the deep ocean. The integrability of the explored equation in traveling wave variables is investigated using the Painlevé test. Periodic and solitary wave solutions of the studied equation are presented. The investigated equation belongs to the class of generalized nonlinear Schrödinger equations and may be used for the description of optical solitons in a nonlinear medium. Full article

This study extensively explores the Biswas–Milovic equation (BME) with Kerr and power law nonlinearity to extract the unique characteristics of optical soliton solutions. These optical soliton solutions have different applications in the field of precision in optical switching, applications in waveguide design, exploration of nonlinear optical effects, imaging precision, reduced intensity fluctuations, suitability for optical signal processing in optical physics, etc. Through the powerful (G/G, 1/G)-expansion analytical method, a variety of soliton solutions are expressed in three distinct forms: trigonometric, hyperbolic, and rational expressions. Rigorous validation using Mathematica software ensures precision, while dynamic visual representations vividly portray various soliton patterns such as kink, anti-kink, singular soliton, hyperbolic, dark soliton, and periodic bright soliton solutions. Indeed, a sensitivity analysis was conducted to assess how changes in parameters affect the exact solutions, aiding in the understanding of system behavior and informing decision-making, especially in accurately designing or analyzing real-world optical phenomena. This investigation reveals the significant influence of parameters λ, τ, c, B, and Κ on the precise solutions in Kerr and power law nonlinearities within the BME. Notably, parameter λ exhibits consistently high sensitivity across all scenarios, while parameters τ and c demonstrate pronounced sensitivity in scenario III. The outcomes derived from this method are distinctive and carry significant implications for the dynamics of optical fibers and wave phenomena across various optical systems. Full article

This paper presents an investigation into original analytical solutions of the (2+1)-dimensional combined potential Kadomtsev–Petviashvili and B-type Kadomtsev–Petviashvili equations. For this purpose, the generalized Kudryashov technique (GKT) and exponential rational function technique (ERFT) have been applied to deal with the equation. These two methods have been applied to the model for the first time, and the the generalized Kudryashov method has an important place in the literature. The characteristics of solitons are unveiled through the use of three-dimensional, two-dimensional, contour, and density plots. Furthermore, we conducted a stability analysis on the acquired results. The results obtained in the article were seen to be different compared to other results in the literature and have not been published anywhere before. Full article
