Burgers equation is a simplified form of the Navier-Stokes equation that represents the non-linear features of it. In this paper, the transient two-dimensional non-linear Burgers equation is solved using the Lattice Boltzmann Method (LBM). The results are compared with the Modified Local Crank-Nicolson method (MLCN) and exact solutions. The LBM has been emerged as a new numerical method for sol...

By the Cole-Hopf transformation, with any linear evolution equation in 1 + 1 dimensions a generalized Burgers equation is associated. We describe local conservation laws of these equations. It turns out that any generalized Burgers equation has only one conservation law, while a linear evolution equation with constant coefficients has an infinite number of (x, t)independent conservation laws if...

This paper studies the problem of optimal control of the viscous KdV-Burgers’ equation. We develop a technique to utilize the Cole-Hopf transformation to solve an optimal control problem for the viscous KdV-Burgers’ equation. While the viscous KdV-Burgers’ equation is transformed into a simpler linear equation, the performance index is transformed to a complicated rational expression. We show t...

In this work we generate the numerical solutions of the Burgers’ equation by applying the Crank-Nicolson method directly to the Burgers’ equation, i.e., we do not use Hopf-Cole transformation to reduce Burgers’ equation into the linear heat equation. Absolute error of the present method is compared to the absolute error of the two existing methods for two test problems. The method is also analy...

The Burgers equation with linear damping has been subjected to Lie's group theoretic method of infinitesimal transformation to derive its solutions. To the best of our knowledge, we are the first to obtain a new similarity variable for an equation of the Burgers type and therefore provide new solutions.

This paper carries out the integration of Burgers equation by the aid of tanh method. This leads to the complex solutions for the Burgers equation, KdV–Burgers equation, coupled Burgers equation and the generalized time-delayed Burgers equation. Finally, the perturbed Burgers equation in (1+1) dimensions is integrated by the ansatz method. 2010 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.

the burgers’ equation is a simplified form of the navier-stokes equations that very well represents their non-linear features. in this paper, numerical methods of the adomian decomposition and the modified crank – nicholson, used for solving the one-dimensional burgers’ equation, have been compared. these numerical methods have also been compared with the analytical method. in contrast to...

New solutions of some important partial differential equations are obtained using the first integral method. The efficiency of the method is demonstrated by applying it for the linear Klein-Gordan equation, MKdV equation, Burgers’ equation in two and three dimensions.

Approximation theorems, analogous to known results for linear elliptic equations, are obtained for solutions of the heat equation. Via the Cole-Hopf transformation, this gives rise to approximation theorems for a nonlinear parabolic equation, Burgers’ equation.
