Exact and numerical traveling wave solutions for nonlinear coupled equations using symbolic computation. (English) Zbl 1048.65096

Summary: We find the explicit and numerical traveling wave solutions for a coupled Korteweg-de Vries (KdV) equation and a coupled modified KdV (MKdV) equation by using the decomposition method with help of symbolic computation. By using this method, the solutions were calculated in the form of a convergent power series with easily computable components. The convergence of the method as applied to the coupled KdV and MKdV equations is illustrated numerically.
