Abstract EN

The equal width (EW) equation governs nonlinear wave phenomena like waves in shallow water.

Numerical solution of the (EW) equation is obtained by using the method of lines (MOL) based on Runge-Kutta integration.

Using von Neumann stability analysis, the scheme is found to be unconditionally stable.

Solitary wave motion and interaction of two solitary waves are studied using the proposed method.

The three invariants of the motion are evaluated to determine the conservation properties of the generated scheme.

Accuracy of the proposed method is discussed by computing the L2 and L∞ error norms.

The results are found in good agreement with exact solution.
