On Compact and Noncompact Structures for the Improved Boussinesq Water Equations

The nonlinear variants of the generalized Boussinesq water equations with positive and negative exponents are studied in this paper.The analytic expressions of the compactons, solitons, solitary patterns, and periodic solutions for the equations are obtained by using a technique based on the reduction of order of differential equations. It is shown that the nonlinear variants, or nonlinear variants together with the wave numbers, directly lead to the qualitative change in the physical structures of the solutions.


Introduction
One of the classical Boussinesq water equations can be written by the form where (, ) is the elevation of the free surface of fluid, the subscripts denote partial derivatives, and the constant coefficients  and  depend on the depth of fluid and the characteristic speed of the long waves.It is well known that Boussinesq equation (1) was originally introduced as a model for one-dimensional weakly nonlinear dispersive waves in shallow water and was subsequently applied to explain problems in the percolation of water in porous subsurface strata.It also crops up in the analysis of many other physical processes.
Various generalizations of the classical Boussinesq water equation have been proposed and studied to probe the dynamic properties of their solutions.The generalized Boussinesq's equations have been successfully applied in coastal engineering for simulating wave propagation from the deep sea to a shallow-water region and in naval architecture for computing ship waves in shallow water (See [1,2]).Kaya [3] obtained the exact and numerical solitary-wave solutions for a generalized modified Boussinesq equation.[1] discussed and analyzed new exact traveling wave solutions for the two-dimensional KdV-Burgers and Boussinesq equations.Lai and Wu [4] and Lai et al. [5] proposed an approach for constructing asymptotic solution of the Boussinesq equations.Rosenau [6] proved that the vibration of the anharmonic mass-spring chain leads to a new Boussinesq equation admitting compactons and compact breathers.It was formally shown that the collision of two compactons results in the creation of low-amplitude compacton and anticompacton pairs.One can find that many meaningful achievements that outline the structure of compactons and the collision of two compactons were reported in [6][7][8].For more details about the compactons and soliton solutions for nonlinear evolution equations, the reader is referred to [4,5,[9][10][11] in which many analytical and numerical methods such as the pseudospectral methods, the Galerkin method, the finite differences method, the sinecosine ansatz, and the tanh method have been presented.

The following (2+1)-dimensional Boussinesq water system was studied in [11].The author discussed the stability of solitary wave solution of (2).It is found that pulse-like solutions to the Boussinesq water equation are stable to linear perturbations.
Wazwaz [12] studied the variants of the following improved Boussinesq water equations.
(I) Variant of the (1+1)-dimensional improved Boussinesq equation with positive exponents is given by and with negative exponents is given by where  ̸ = 0 and  ̸ = 0 are constants.
(II) Variant of the (2+1) dimensional improved Boussinesq equation with positive exponents (some typing's errors occurred for ( 5) and ( 6) in [12].This can be found through the reading of the whole paper) is given by and with negative exponents is in the form where  1 +  2 ̸ = 0 and  1 +  2 ̸ = 0. Wazwaz [12] assumed that the solutions of (3), (4), (5), and (6) take the forms in terms of sine or cosine; namely, or the ansatz where  1 =  −  or  1 =  +  −  and  and  are the wave number and the wave speed, respectively.Using the balancing rule, Wazwaz [12] calculated and found out the concrete values of , , .
In this paper, by using a mathematical technique different from those in [9,12], we derive analytical expressions of the travelling solutions with wave variable  = ( − ) for (3) and ( 4) or  =  +  −  for ( 5) and ( 6) where , , and  are arbitrary nonzero constants.The technique used in this paper is proved very useful in constructing the exact travelling wave solutions for (3)- (6).It is shown that the nonlinear variants, or nonlinear variants together with the wave numbers, directly determine the physical structures of the solutions such as compactons, solitons, solitary patterns, and periodic solutions.Moreover, the results presented in this paper include those carried out in Wazwaz [12].

Variant of the (1+1)-Dimensional Improved Boussinesq Equation with Positive Exponents
Firstly, we consider solutions of the following equation: where  0 ̸ = 0 and  0 ̸ = 0 are constants.When  0 > 0, (9) admits two solutions: where  is an arbitrary constant.When  0 < 0, noticing that cosh 2 −sinh 2  = 1, we derive that ( 9) has two solutions of the form where  = √ −1.Now, we write out the following formulas which will be used in this work: Remark 1.Here we point out that we will solve (9) in the complex value district.By the theory of solution structure for the first-order ordinary differential equation, we know that the formulas ( 10) and ( 11) include all the analytical solutions of (9).In the following discussions, we let the phase number  = 0 in formulas (10), (11) and the forthcoming analytical expressions of travelling wave solutions.
In this section, we seek formal travelling wave solutions for (3); namely, where the wave variable  takes the form  = ( − ) with constants  ̸ = 0 and  ̸ = 0.The wave variable  = (−) turns (3) into the following ODE: Integrating ( 14) twice and setting the constants of integration to be zero, we have Since  2 appears in (15), we can assume that  > 0 always holds.
Case 2. When  2 ̸ = 1, letting   / = , we have  2   / 2 = (/  ) and Using   =  −1 , we have Further calculation of (19) gives rise to If / > 0, it follows from (10) and (20) that or where  is a free constant.Choosing the phase number  = 0 in formulas ( 21) and ( 22) and limiting the domain of , we have the following compacton solutions: However, for / < 0, from ( 11) and (20), we obtain the solitary pattern solutions: Remark 2. From the formulas (21)-( 22), we conclude that the compactons and solitary pattern solutions are independent of wave number  when we choose the phase number equals zero.These results extend those obtained by Wazwaz [12] in which the wave number  was chosen as a special constant.

Variant of the (1+1)-Dimensional Improved Boussinesq Equation with Negative Exponents
Now, we consider the (1+1)-dimensional improved Boussinesq equation with negative exponents; namely, Since ( 3) and ( 26) are symmetric about  and (−), we can readily obtain the following periodic solutions for (26): For the case where / < 0, (26) has solitons of the form

Conclusion
In this paper, we solve the generalized Boussinesq water equations with positive or negative exponents.The analytical expressions of the travelling wave solutions for the nonlinear equations presented by ( 3)-( 6) are established.
For the (1+1)-dimensional Boussinesq equations, two outcomes are achieved.One is that the wave number  in the analytically expressions of the travelling waves solutions keeps as an arbitrary nonzero constant when the corresponding phase equals zero.In other words, the travelling wave solutions are independent of the wave number  if the phase of the solutions is zero.The other is that the exponent  together with the ratio /, positive or negative, directly determines the qualitative changes in the physical structures of solutions.
For the (2+1)-dimensional generalized Boussinesq equations with positive or negative exponents, we obtain analytical expressions for the compactons, solitons, solitary patterns, and periodic solutions.It is shown that the exponent , the wave numbers  and , and the coefficients  1 ,  2 ,  1 , and  2 appearing in Boussinesq equation ( 5) and ( 6) are the main factors which determine the changes of physical structures of solutions.More precisely, the exponent  and the factor ( 1  2 +  2  2 )/( 1  2 +  2  2 ), positive or negative, directly lead to the qualitative changes in the physical structures of the solutions.
