Proper orthogonal decomposition is a popular approach for determining the principal spatial structures from the measured data. Generally, model reduction using empirical eigenfunctions (EEFs) can generate a relatively low-dimensional model among all linear expansions. However, the neglectful modes representing only a tiny amount of energy will be crucial in the modeling for certain type of nonlinear partial differential equations (PDEs). In this paper, an optimal combination of EEFs is proposed for model reduction of nonlinear partial differential equations (PDEs), obtained by the basis function transformation from the initial EEFs. The transformation matrix is derived from straightforward optimization techniques. The present new EEFs can keep the dynamical information of neglectful modes and generate a lower-dimensional and more precise dynamical system for the PDEs. The numerical example shows its effectiveness and feasibility for model reduction of the nonlinear PDEs.

The method of order completion provides a general and type-independent theory for the existence and basic regularity of the solutions of large classes of systems of nonlinear partial differential equations (PDEs). Recently, the application of convergence spaces to this theory resulted in a significant improvement upon the regularity of the solutions and provided new insight into the structure of solutions. In this paper, we show how this method may be adapted so as to allow for the infinite differentiability of generalized functions. Moreover, it is shown that a large class of smooth nonlinear PDEs admit generalized solutions in the space constructed here. As an indication of how the general theory can be applied to particular nonlinear equations, we construct generalized solutions of the parametrically driven, damped nonlinear Schrödinger equation in one spatial dimension.

In this paper, we find travelling wave solutions of some nonlinear partial differential equations (PDEs) by using the extended tanh-function method. Some illustrative equations are investigated by this method and new travelling wave solutions are found. In addition, the properties of these nonlinear PDEs are shown with some figures.

AbstractThe numerical solution of differential equations can be formulated as an inference problem to which formal statistical approaches can be applied. However, nonlinear partial differential equations (PDEs) pose substantial challenges from an inferential perspective, most notably the absence of explicit conditioning formula. This paper extends earlier work on linear PDEs to a general class of initial value problems specified by nonlinear PDEs, motivated by problems for which evaluations of the right-hand-side, initial conditions, or boundary conditions of the PDE have a high computational cost. The proposed method can be viewed as exact Bayesian inference under an approximate likelihood, which is based on discretisation of the nonlinear differential operator. Proof-of-concept experimental results demonstrate that meaningful probabilistic uncertainty quantification for the unknown solution of the PDE can be performed, while controlling the number of times the right-hand-side, initial and boundary conditions are evaluated. A suitable prior model for the solution of PDEs is identified using novel theoretical analysis of the sample path properties of Matérn processes, which may be of independent interest.

In the last decades, wavelets have become a dominant tool for having applications in almost all the areas of engineering and science such as numerical simulation of partial differential equations (PDEs). The performance of the conventional numerical methods has been found to involve some difficulty to observe fast convergence in low computational time. To overcome this difficulty, we presented wavelet-based full approximation scheme (WFAS) for the numerical solution of some class of nonlinear PDEs using Daubechies wavelet intergrid operators. The numerical results obtained by this scheme are compared with the exact solution to reveal the accuracy and also speed up convergence in lesser computational time as compared with the existing schemes. Some test problems are presented to show the applicability and attractiveness of WFAS.
