In this paper, the modified Adomian s decomposition method for calculating a numerical solution of the one-dimensional quasi-linear, the Burgers equation, is presented. Time discretization has been used in decomposition, without using any transformation in the Burgers equation such as Hopf–Cole transformation. The numerical results obtained by this way for various values of viscosity have been ...

Abstract In this article, we obtain explicit solutions of a linear PDE subject to a class of radial square integrable functions with a monotonically increasing weight function |x|e 2/2, β ≥ 0, x ∈ R. This linear PDE is obtained from a system of forced Burgers equation via the Cole-Hopf transformation. For any spatial dimension n > 1, the solution is expressed in terms of a family of weighted ge...

In this paper we study the large time behavior for the viscous Burgers’ equation with initial data in L(R). In particular, after a time dependent scaling, we provide the optimal rate of convergence in relative entropy and Wasserstein metric, towards an equilibrium state corresponding to a positive diffusive wave. The main tool in our analysis is the reduction of the rescaled Burgers’ equation t...

We study centred second-order in time and space discretizations of the inviscid Burgers equation. Although this equation in its continuum formulation supports non-smooth shock wave solutions, the discrete equation generically supports smooth solitary wave solutions. Using backward error analysis we derive the modified equation associated with the numerical scheme. We identify three different eq...

Three (2 + 1)-dimensional equations—Burgers equation, cylindrical Burgers equation and spherical Burgers equation, have been reduced to the classical Burgers equation by different transformation of variables respectively. The decay mode solutions of the Burgers equation have been obtained by using the extended G G ′       -expansion method, substituting the solutions obtained into the cor...

The Burgers’ equation first appeared in the paper by Bateman [3], who mentioned two of the essentially steady solutions. Due to extensive works of Burgers [4] involving the Burgers’ equation especially as a mathematical model for the turbulence, it is known as Burgers’ equation. The equation is used as a model in fields as wide as heat conduction [5], gas dynamics [13], shock waves [4], longitu...

The complex -symmetric nonlinear wave models have drawn much attention in recent years since the complex -symmetric extensions of the Korteweg-de Vries (KdV) equation were presented in 2007. In this review, we focus on the study of the complex -symmetric nonlinear Schrödinger equation and Burgers equation. First of all, we briefly introduce the basic property of complex symmetry. We then report...

In this work we generate the numerical solutions of Burgers’ equation by applying the Crank-Nicholson method and different schemes for solving nonlinear systems, instead of using Hopf-Cole transformation to reduce Burgers’ equation into the linear heat equation. The method is analyzed on two test problems in order to check its efficiency on different kinds of initial conditions. Numerical solut...

We explore the use of radial basis functions (RBF) in the weighted essentially non-oscillatory (WENO) reconstruction process used to solve hyperbolic conservation laws, resulting in a numerical method of arbitrarily high order to solve problems with discontinuous solutions. Thanks to the mesh-less property of the RBFs, the method is suitable for non uniform grids and mesh adaptation. We focus o...
