This paper extends the (2+1)-dimensional Eckhaus-type dispersive long wave equations in continuous medium to their fractional partner, which is a model of nonlinear waves in fractal porous media. The derivation is shown briefly using He?s fractional derivative. Using the semi-inverse method, the variational principles are established for the fractional system, which up to now are not discovered. The obtained fractal variational principles are proved correct by minimizing the functionals with the calculus of variations, and might find potential applications in numerical modelling.

Using the semi-inverse method proposed by Ji-Huan He, variational principles are established for some nonlinear wave equations arising in physics, including the Pochhammer-Chree equation, Zakharov-Kuznetsov equation, Korteweg-de Vries equation, Zhiber-Shabat equation, Kawahara equation, and Boussinesq equation.

The semi-inverse method is adopted to establish a family of fractal variational principles of the one-dimensional compressible flow under the microgravity condition, and Cauchy–Lagrange integral is successfully derived from the obtained variational formulation. A suitable application of the Lagrange multiplier method is also elucidated.

This paper extends the [Formula: see text]-dimensional Broer–Kaup equations in continuum mechanics to its fractional partner, which can model a lot of nonlinear waves in fractal porous media. Its derivation is demonstrated in detail by applying He’s fractional derivative. Using the semi-inverse method, two variational principles are established for the nonlinear coupled equations, which up to now are not discovered. The variational formulations can help to study the symmetries and find conserved quantities in the fractal space. The obtained variational principles are proved correct by minimizing the functionals with the calculus of variations, and might find potential applications in numerical simulation. The procedure reveals that the semi-inverse method is highly efficient and powerful, and can be generalized to other nonlinear evolution equations with fractal derivatives.

It is a very important but difficult task to seek explicit variational formulations for nonlinear and complex models because variational principles are theoretical bases for many methods to solve or analyze the nonlinear problem. By designing skillfully the trial-Lagrange functional, different groups of variational principles are successfully constructed for two kinds of coupled nonlinear equations in shallow water, i.e., the Broer-Kaup equations and the (2+1)-dimensional dispersive long-wave equations, respectively. Both of them contain many kinds of soliton solutions, which are always symmetric or anti-symmetric in space. Subsequently, the obtained variational principles are proved to be correct by minimizing the functionals with the calculus of variations. The established variational principles are firstly discovered, which can help to study the symmetries and find conserved quantities for the equations considered, and might find lots of applications in numerical simulation.

Variational principles for nonlinear partial differential equations have come to play an important role in mathematics and physics. However, it is well known that not every nonlinear partial differential equation admits a variational formula. In this paper, He's semi-inverse method is used to construct a family of variational principles for the long water-wave problem.

By means of the generalized direct method, we investigate the (2+1)-dimensional dispersive long wave equations. A relationship is constructed between the new solutions and the old ones and we obtain the full symmetry group of the (2+1)-dimensional dispersive long wave equations, which includes the Lie point symmetry group S and the discrete groups D. Some new forms of solutions are obtained by selecting the form of the arbitrary functions, based on their relationship. We also find an infinite number of conservation laws of the (2+1)-dimensional dispersive long wave equations.
