APPROXIMATE SOLUTION OF FORNBERG–WHITHAM EQUATION BY MODIFIED HOMOTOPY PERTURBATION METHOD UNDER NON-SINGULAR FRACTIONAL DERIVATIVE

The basic idea of this paper is to investigate the approximate solution to a well-known Fornberg–Whitham equation of arbitrary order. We consider the stated problem under ABC fractional order derivative. The proposed derivative is non-local and contains non-singular kernel of Mittag-Leffler type. With the help of Modified Homotopy Perturbation Method (MHPM), we find approximate solution to the aforesaid equations. The required solution is computed in the form of infinite series. The method needs no discretization or collocation and easy to implement to compute the approximate solution that we intend. We also compare our results with that of the exact solution for the initial four terms approximate solution as well as with that computed by the Laplace decomposition method. We also plot the approximate solution of considered model through surface plots. For numerical illustration, we use Matlab throughout this work.

Global bifurcation of solitary waves for the Whitham equation

The Whitham equation is a nonlocal shallow water-wave model which combines the quadratic nonlinearity of the KdV equation with the linear dispersion of the full water wave problem. Whitham conjectured the existence of a highest, cusped, traveling-wave solution, and his conjecture was recently verified in the periodic case by Ehrnström and Wahlén. In the present paper we prove it for solitary waves. Like in the periodic case, the proof is based on global bifurcation theory but with several new challenges. In particular, the small-amplitude limit is singular and cannot be handled using regular bifurcation theory. Instead we use an approach based on a nonlocal version of the center manifold theorem. In the large-amplitude theory a new challenge is a possible loss of compactness, which we rule out using qualitative properties of the equation. The highest wave is found as a limit point of the global bifurcation curve.

The Comparative Study for Solving Fractional-Order Fornberg–Whitham Equation via ρ-Laplace Transform

In this article, we also introduced two well-known computational techniques for solving the time-fractional Fornberg–Whitham equations. The methods suggested are the modified form of the variational iteration and Adomian decomposition techniques by ρ-Laplace. Furthermore, an illustrative scheme is introduced to verify the accuracy of the available methods. The graphical representation of the exact and derived results is presented to show the suggested approaches reliability. The comparative solution analysis via graphs also represented the higher reliability and accuracy of the current techniques.
