Abstract

The improved F-expansion method with a computerized symbolic computation is used to construct the exact traveling wave solutions of four nonlinear evolution equations in physics. As a result, many exact traveling wave solutions are obtained which include new soliton-like solutions, trigonometric function solutions, and rational solutions. The method is straightforward and concise, and it holds promise for many applications.
