Abstract
In this chapter generalized versions of the Ostrovsky equations are considered. These were shown to admit classical and generalized solitary wave solutions. The periodic initial-value problem for the equations is numerically solved with a fully discrete scheme based on pseudospectral discretization in space and a fourth-order composition Runge-Kutta method as time integrator. The resulting scheme is checked and applied to study numerically the dynamics of the solitary wave solutions. Specifically, we analyze the stability of classical and generalized solitary waves under small perturbations, the resolution of initial data into several solitary pulses (the so-called resolution property) and various aspects of the interaction of the solitary waves.
