Abstract
In this chapter, we discuss the main ideas and solution methods for nonlinear partial differential equations of the second order, which allow us to investigate the important for applications features and evolution stages of nonlinear-waves due to competition of nonlincarity and dissipation. Additional useful information on this topic can be found in Refs. [1-5].
