Method of Multiple Scales and Travelling Wave Solutions for (2+1)-Dimensional KdV Type Nonlinear Evolution Equations

Abstract

In this article, we applied the method of multiple scales for Korteweg–de Vries (KdV) type equations and we derived nonlinear Schrödinger (NLS) type equations. So we get a relation between KdV type equations and NLS type equations. In addition, exact solutions were found for KdV type equations. The $\left( {{{G'} \over G}} \right)$ -expansion methods and the $\left( {{{G'} \over G},{\rm{ }}{1 \over G}} \right)$ -expansion methods were proposed to establish new exact solutions for KdV type differential equations. We obtained periodic and hyperbolic function solutions for these equations. These methods are very effective for getting travelling wave solutions of nonlinear evolution equations (NEEs).
