Abstract

Rogers et al. (Wave Motion 56:147–164, 2015) investigated a class of deformations in nonlinear elastodynamics for an isotropic elastic solid subject to body forces corresponding to a nonlinear substrate potential. A few of exact solutions were obtained, which are descriptive of the propagation of compact waves and motions with oscillatory spatial dependence. But the bifurcations of phase portraits and dynamic behaviors of solutions have not been studied for the two dynamical systems. In fact, the two model equations are singular nonlinear wave systems of the first and second kinds, respectively. In this paper, we use the method of dynamical systems to investigate the bifurcations of phase portraits for the two systems and obtain all possible exact solutions.
