Abstract

In this article, we construct the traveling wave solutions involving parameters of nonlinear evolutions equations via the Benney-Luke equation using the exp(-Φ(ξ))-expansion method. The traveling wave solutions are expressed in terms of hyperbolic, trigonometric and rational functions. When the parameters are taken special values, the solitary waves are derived from the traveling waves. The proposed method is direct, concise elementary and effective and can be used for many other nonlinear evolutions equations.
