An efficient numerical scheme for the study of equal width equation

In this work a new numerical scheme is proposed in which Haar wavelet method is coupled with finite difference scheme for the solution of a nonlinear partial differential equation. The scheme transforms the partial differential equation to a system of algebraic equations which can be solved easily. The technique is applied to equal width equation in order to study the behaviour of one, two, three solitary waves, undular bore and soliton collision. For efficiency and accuracy of the scheme, L2 and L∞ norms and invariants are computed. The results obtained are compared with already existing results in literature.
