Based on continuous mapping, a kind of analytical method for nonlinear problems, namely, the Process Analysis Method, is described and used to solve two-dimensional nonlinear progressive gravity waves. Solutions at the fourth order of approximation are obtained and compared with Stokesian waves. In contrast to the perturbation expansion method, the Process Analysis Method is independent of small or great parameters and therefore can solve nonlinear problems without small or great parameters.

In this paper, a new kind of analytical method of nonlinear problem called the process analysis method (PAM) is described and used to give a second-order approximate solution of a simple pendulum. The PAM does not depend on the small parameter supposition and therefore can overcome the disadvantages and limitations of the perturbation expansion method. The analytical approximate results at the second-order of approximation are in good agreement with the numerical results. They are compared with perturbation solutions, and it appears that even the firstorder solutions are more accurate than the perturbation solutions at second-order of approximation.

Equations of motion are derived for long gravity waves in a straight uniform channel. The cross-section of the channel may be of any shape provided that it does not have gently sloping banks and it is not very wide compared with its depth. The equations may be reduced to those for two-dimensional motion such as occurs in a rectangular channel. The order of approximation in these equations is sufficient to give the solitary wave as a solution.

A modified Kadomtsev–Petviashvili equation is derived for ion-acoustic waves in a multispecies plasma consisting of non-isothermal electrons. This equation is used to investigate the stability of modified KdV solitons against long-wavelength plane-wave perturbation using the small-k perturbation expansion method of Rowlands and Infeld. It is found that modified KdV solitons are stable.

The dynamics of optical solitons with dispersion-management propagating through optical fibers with damping and amplification is studied. A multiple-scale perturbation expansion method is used to analyze the nonlinear Schrödinger's equation that governs the propagation of such solitons. In this paper we have considered both polarization preserving as well as birefringent fibers. Finally, the case of dense wavelength-division-multiplexed soliton system is also considered.
