This paper obtains the soliton solutions to the Boussinesq equation with the effect of surface tension being taken into account. The power law nonlinearity is considered. Three integration tools are adopted in order to extract the soliton solutions. They are the traveling wave hypothesis, ansatz method and the semi-inverse variational principle. Finally, the Lie symmetry approach is adopted to extract the conservation laws of this equation.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
