Wave solutions for variants of the KdV-Burger and the K(n,n)-Burger equations by the generalized G′/G-expansion method

An application of the G'/G-expansion method to search for exact solutions of nonlinear partial differential equations is analyzed. This method is used for variants of the Korteweg-de Vries-Burger and the K(n,n)-Burger equations. The generalized G'/G-expansion method was used to construct periodic wave and solitary wave solutions of nonlinear evolution equations. This method is developed for searching exact traveling wave solutions of nonlinear partial differential equations. It is shown that the generalized G'/G-expansion method, with the help of symbolic computation, provides a straightforward and powerfulmathematical tool for solving nonlinear problems.
