The quadratically cubic Burgers equation: an exactly solvable nonlinear model for shocks, pulses and periodic waves

Abstract: compression can be stable, but shocks of rarefaction as well. The formation of stationary waves with finite width of shock front resulting from the competition between nonlinearity and dissipation is traced. Singlepulse propagation is studied by computer modeling. The nonlinear evolutions of N-and S-waves in a dissipative QC medium are described, and the transformation of a harmonic wave to a sawtooth-shaped wave with periodically recurring trapezoidal teeth is analyzed.

“…These materials exist in nature-one example is cracked or granular materials [22]. Modular and other related unusual nonlinearities exist also in composites and meta-materials, increasing the applicative interest of these studies [23], and the mathematical and physical aspects of the nonlinear dynamics in such materials will be expanded in the nearest future.…”

“…This class of inverse problems is considered by the authors recently-the recovering of the function of the argument of a spatial variable (that determines the properties of the medium) from the data of observations of the function of the argument of the time variable (that determined by the dynamics of the reaction front). In this paper, we consider the question of the possibility of recovering the advection coefficient in the generalized Burgers equation [42] from the data on the dynamics of the reaction front.…”
