Abstract
We study the asymptotics and the structure of solutions of generalized KdV-class equations with an arbitrary nonlinearity index, which are extensively used in the physics of ionospheric and magnetospheric plasma, hydrodynamics, and aerodynamics. KdV-class equations are generalized by introducing higher-order dispersion correction and terms describing dissipation and instability caused by numerous factors. Using asymptotic analysis and analysis of solutions in the phase space, we distinguish among different classes of solutions of soliton and nonsoliton types.
