Traveling wave solutions of a hybrid KdV-Burgers equation with arbitrary real coefficients in relation with beam-permeated multi-ion plasma fluids by Kuldeep Singh, Steffy Sara Varghese, Ioannis Kourakis

“…Abstract The Korteweg de Vries-Burgers (KdV-B) (1+1) equation $$\begin{aligned} \frac{\partial \psi }{\partial t} +a \, \psi \frac{\partial \psi }{\partial x} + b \, \frac{\partial ^{3}\psi }{\partial x^{3}} = c \, \frac{\partial ^{2} \psi }{\partial x^2} \,, \end{aligned}$$ incorporating constant (real) coefficients representing nonlinearity (a), dispersion (b) and dissipation (c), is a long known paradigm in e.g. plasma physics, where it can be derived from plasma fluid-dynamical models, so that all coefficients depend parametrically on the plasma composition. …”
