The nonlinear features of dust-acoustic waves in a strongly coupled unmagnetized dusty plasma containing electrons and ions following q-nonextensive distribution, and negatively charged mobile dust are investigated by using the reductive perturbation method. The effects of important parameters, such as the q-parameter, temperature, density, and velocity on the properties of solitary and shock waves are discussed. The conditions for the formation of solitary structures and monotonic and oscillatory shock structures are also found. The implications of our result in space and laboratory dusty plasmas are discussed.

We study the effect of charge fluctuations on the propagation of adiabatic linear and nonlinear dust-acoustic waves by considering the electrons and ions to be in Boltzmann equilibria, and the dust grains to satisfy the fluid equations with full adiabatic equation of state. Linear dust-acoustic waves are damped owing to the dust-charge fluctuations, and the damping rate decreases with increasing adiabatic dust pressure. Nonlinear dust-acoustic waves are governed by the set of coupled Boussinesq-like and dust-charge perturbation equations. It is shown that for unidirectional propagation, the Boussinesq-like equation reduces to usual Korteweg–de Vries (KdV) equation. At early times, the localized solutions of the KdV equation are damped owing to the dust-charge perturbations. The soliton amplitude decreases with increasing adiabatic dust plasma pressure and increases with Mach number. Soliton solutions are found only in the supersonic regime.
