Abstract

 

In this article, the exp-function method is used to construct some new exact solitary wave solutions of the sixth-order Boussinesq equation and the regularized long wave equations. These equations play very important role in mathematical physics, engineering sciences and applied mathematics. The exp-function method is a powerful and straightforward mathematical tool for solving nonlinear evolution equations.

 

Key words: Sixth-order Boussinesq equation, regularized long wave equation, the exp-function method, solitary wave solutions, nonlinear partial differential equations.
