What is Traveling Wave Analysis of Partial Differential Equations about?

*Partial differential equations* (PDEs) have been developed and used in science and engineering for more than 200 years, yet they remain a very active area of research because of both their role in mathematics and their application to virtually all areas of science and engineering. This research has been spurred by the relatively recent development of computer solution methods for PDEs. These have extended PDE applications such that we can now quantify broad areas of physical, chemical, and biological phenomena. The current development of PDE solution methods is an active area of research that has benefited greatly from advances in computer hardware and software, and the growing interest in addressing PDE models of increasing complexity. A large class of models now being actively studied are of a type and complexity such that their solutions are usually beyond traditional mathematical analysis. Consequently, numerical methods have to be employed. These numerical methods, some of which are still being developed, require testing and validation. This is often achieved by studying PDEs that have known exact analytical solutions. The development of analytical solutions is also an active
