The modified regularized long wave (MRLW) equation is solved numerically by collocation method using cubic B-splines finite element. A linear stability analysis of the scheme is shown to be marginally stable. Three invariants of motion are evaluated to determine the conservation properties of the algorithm, also the numerical scheme leads to accurate and efficient results. Moreover, interaction of two and three solitary waves are studied through computer simulation and the development of the Maxwellian initial condition into solitary waves is also shown.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
