Abstract
Purpose
To provide a new semi-analytical solution for the nonlinear Benjamin–Bona–Mahony (BBM) equation in the form of a convergent series. The results obtained through HPTM for BBM are compared with those obtained using the Sine-Gordon Expansion Method (SGEM) and the exact solution. We consider the initial condition as uncertain, represented in terms of an interval then investigate the solution of the interval Benjamin–Bona–Mahony (iBBM).
Design/methodology/approach
We employ the Homotopy Perturbation Transform Method (HPTM) to derive the series solution for the BBM equation. Furthermore, the iBBM equation is solved using HPTM to the initial condition has been considered as an interval number as the coefficient of it depends on several parameters and provides lower and upper interval solutions for iBBM.
Findings
The obtained numerical results provide accurate solutions, as demonstrated in the figures. The numerical results are evaluated to the precise solutions and found to be in good agreement. Further, the initial condition has been considered as an interval number as the coefficient of it depends on several parameters. To enhance the clarity, we depict our solutions using 3D graphics and interval solution plots generated using MATLAB.
Originality/value
A new semi-analytical convergent series-type solution has been found for nonlinear BBM and interval BBM equations with the help of the semi-analytical technique HPTM.

Abstract
Purpose
This study aims to find the solution of time-fractional Korteweg–de-Vries (tfKdV) equations which may be used for modeling various wave phenomena using homotopy perturbation transform method (HPTM).
Design/methodology/approach
HPTM, which consists of mainly two parts, the first part is the application of Laplace transform to the differential equation and the second part is finding the convergent series-type solution using homotopy perturbation method (HPM), based on He’s polynomials.
Findings
The study obtained the solution of tfKdV equations. An existing result “as the fractional order of KdV equation given in the first example decreases the wave bifurcates into two peaks” is confirmed with present results by HPTM. A worth mentioning point may be noted from the results is that the number of terms required for acquiring the convergent solution may not be the same for different time-fractional orders.
Originality/value
Although third-order tfKdV and mKdV equations have already been solved by ADM and HPM, respectively, the fifth-order tfKdV equation has not been solved yet. Accordingly, here HPTM is applied to two tfKdV equations of order three and five which are used for modeling various wave phenomena. The results of third-order KdV and KdV equations are compared with existing results.

Purpose
The purpose of this paper is to find the solution of classical nonlinear shallow-water wave (SWW) equations in particular to the tsunami wave propagation in crisp and interval environment.
Design/methodology/approach
Homotopy perturbation method (HPM) has been used for handling crisp and uncertain differential equations governing SWW equations.
Findings
The wave height and depth-averaged velocity of a tsunami wave in crisp and interval cases have been obtained.
Originality/value
Present results by HPM are compared with the existing solution (in crisp case), and they are found to be in good agreement. Also, the residual error of the solutions is found for the convergence conformation and reliability of the present results.

Abstract
Purpose
This paper aims to deal with the application of variational iteration method and homotopy perturbation method (HPM) for solving one dimensional shallow water equations with crisp and fuzzy uncertain initial conditions.
Design/methodology/approach
Firstly, the study solved shallow water equations using variational iteration method and HPM with constant basin depth and crisp initial conditions. Further, the study considered uncertain initial conditions in terms of fuzzy numbers, which leads the governing equations to fuzzy shallow water equations. Then using cut and parametric concepts the study converts fuzzy shallow water equations to crisp form. Then, HPM has been used to solve the fuzzy shallow water equations.
Findings
Results obtained by both methods HPM and variational iteration method are compared graphically in crisp case. Solution of fuzzy shallow water equations by HPM are presented in the form triangular fuzzy number plots.
Originality/value
Shallow water equations with crisp and fuzzy initial conditions have been solved.

Abstract
Purpose
This paper aims to solve linear and non-linear shallow water wave equations using homotopy perturbation method (HPM). HPM is a straightforward method to handle linear and non-linear differential equations. As such here, one-dimensional shallow water wave equations have been considered to solve those by HPM. Interesting results are reported when the solutions of linear and non-linear equations are compared.
Design/methodology/approach
HPM was used in this study.
Findings
Solution of one-dimensional linear and non-linear shallow water wave equations and comparison of linear and non-linear coupled shallow water waves from the results obtained using present method.
Originality/value
Coupled non-linear shallow water wave equations are solved.

Abstract
Purpose
This paper aims to present solutions of uncertain linear and non-linear shallow water wave equations. The uncertainty has been taken as interval and one-dimensional interval shallow water wave equations have been solved by homotopy perturbation method (HPM). In this study, basin depth and initial conditions have been taken as interval and the single parametric concept has been used to handle the interval uncertainty.
Design/methodology/approach
HPM has been used to solve interval shallow water wave equation with the help of single parametric concept.
Findings
Previously, few authors found solution of shallow water wave equations with crisp basin depth and initial conditions. But, in actual sense, the basin depth, as well as initial conditions, may not be found in crisp form. As such, here these are considered as uncertain in term of intervals. Hence, interval linear and non-linear shallow water wave equations are solved in this study using single parametric concept-based HPM.
Originality/value
As mentioned above, uncertainty is must in the above-titled problems due to the various parametrics involved in the governing differential equations. These uncertain parametric values may be considered as interval. To the best of the authors’ knowledge, no work has been reported on the solution of uncertain shallow water wave equations. But when the interval uncertainty is involved in the above differential equation, then direct methods are not available. Accordingly, single parametric concept-based HPM has been applied in this study to handle the said problems.
