Exploring the wave solutions of a nonlinear non-local fractional model for ocean waves

Abstract

In this research, analytical and semi-analytical soliton solutions for the nonlinear fractional (2 + 1)-dimensional integrable Calogero–Bogoyavlenskii–Schiff equation (FCBSE) in the non-local form are obtained using recent computational and numerical methods. The FCBSE is a significant model for investigating various phenomena, such as internal ocean waves, tsunamis, river tidal waves, and magneto-sound waves in plasma. The constructed solution helps in understanding the interaction between a long wave moving along the x-axis and a Riemann wave propagating along the y-axis. Various analytical solutions, such as exponential, trigonometric, and hyperbolic, have been formulated differently for this model, which is a specific derivation of the well-known Korteweg–de Vries equation. Density charts in two and three dimensions are used to visualize the behavior of a single soliton in reality through simulations. The results demonstrate the effectiveness of the employed numerical scheme and various methods to ensure the consistency of computational and approximation answers. Overall, this study demonstrates the potential of recent computational and numerical techniques for solving nonlinear mathematical and physical problems.
