In this paper, we derive a delayed reaction-diffusion equation to describe a two-species predator-prey system with diffusion terms and stage structure. By coupling the uniformly approximate approach with the method of upper and lower solutions, we prove that the traveling wave fronts exist, which connect the zero solution with the positive steady state. Finally, we draw a conclusion that the ex...

Traveling wave (band) behavior driven by chemotaxis was observed experimentally by Adler and was modeled by Keller and Segel. For a quasilinear hyperbolic parabolic system that arises as a non-di®usive limit of the Keller Segel model with nonlinear kinetics, we establish the existence and nonlinear stability of traveling wave solutions with large amplitudes. The numerical simulations are perfor...

We study persistence in coupled circle maps with repulsive (inhibitory) coupling, and find that it offers an effective way to characterize the synchronous, traveling wave and spatiotemporally chaotic states of the system. In the traveling wave state, persistence decays as a power law and, in contrast to earlier observations in dynamical systems, this power-law scaling does not occur at the tran...

We study the traveling wave solutions for a system of coupled KdV equations derived by Lou et al [11]. In that paper, they found 5 types of Painlevé integrable systems for the coupled KdV system. We show that each of them can be reduced to a partially or completely uncoupled system, through which the dynamical behavior of traveling wave solutions can be determined. In some parameter regions, ex...

Electron magnetohydrodynamics (EMHD) provides a fluidlike description of small-scale magnetized plasmas. An EMHD wave propagates along magnetic field lines. The direction of propagation can be either parallel or antiparallel to the magnetic field lines. We numerically study propagation of three-dimensional (3D) EMHD wave packets moving in one direction. We obtain two major results. (1) Unlike i...

In this paper, we study a new modified Novikov equation for its classical and nonclassical symmetries and use the symmetries to reduce it to a nonlinear ordinary differential equation (ODE). With the aid of solutions of the nonlinear ODE by using the modified (G′/G)-expansion method proposed recently, multiple exact traveling wave solutions are obtained and the traveling wave solutions are expr...

The new approach of the generalized (G'/G)-expansion method is an effective and powerful mathematical tool in finding exact traveling wave solutions of nonlinear evolution equations (NLEEs) in science, engineering and mathematical physics. In this article, the new approach of the generalized (G'/G)-expansion method is applied to construct traveling wave solutions of the Kadomtsev-Petviashvili-B...

We establish the existence of traveling wave solutions and small amplitude traveling wave train solutions for a reaction-diffusion system based on a predator–prey model with Holling type-III functional response. The analysis is in the three-dimensional phase space of the nonlinear ordinary differential equation system given by the diffusive predator– prey system in the traveling wave variable. ...

Transmission lines are designed to transfer electric power from source locations to distribution networks. This project investigates the problem of fault localization using traveling wave voltage and current signals obtained at a single end of a transmission line and multi ends of a transmission network. Fourier transform (FT) is the most popular transformation that can be applied to traveling ...

This paper investigates traveling wave solutions of the spatially discrete reaction-diffusion systems whose kinetics are modeled by the McKean caricature of the FitzHugh-Nagumo model. In the limit of a weak coupling strength, we construct the traveling wave solutions and obtain the critical coupling constant below which propagation failure occurs. We report the existence of two different pulse ...
