Abstract

By utilizing the transformation given in our article Fizika A 14 (2005) 233 and introducing an intermediate function f(y), a direct approach is presented to solve the Burgers equation which does not require introducing the trial function. Based on it, abundant types of explicit exact solutions of the Burgers equation, including the solitary wave solutions, the singular traveling wave solutions, the triangle function periodic wave solutions, the rational solution etc., are successfully derived.

Keywords

direct approach; Burgers equation; explicit exact solution
