Abstract

\((\frac{G^\prime }{G})\)-expansion method is exercised to find out the wave solutions of some nonlinear evolution equations such as Chafee–Infante equation (CI), Gardner equation (GE), and Regularized long-wave equation (RLWE). This technique is straight forward and gives more new general solutions and various types of periodic and wave solutions, which were derived. We choose this method as it is straight, brief, elementary and compelling, and in agreement with many other nonlinear evolution equations (NLEEs).
