Abstract

The method of simplest equation is applied for obtaining exact solitary traveling-wave solutions of nonlinear partial differential equations that contain monomials of odd and even grade with respect to participating derivatives. The used simplest equation is fξ2=n2(f2f(2n+2)/n)f_\xi^2 = n^2(f^2 -f^{(2n+2)/n}). The developed methodology is illustrated on two examples of classes of nonlinear partial differential equations that contain: (i) only monomials of odd grade with respect to participating derivatives; (ii) only monomials of even grade with respect to participating derivatives. The obtained solitary wave solution for the case (i) contains as particular cases the solitary wave solutions of Korteweg-deVries equation and of a version of the modified Korteweg-deVries equation.
