Abstract

In this paper, we study the Korteweg-de Vries-Burgers equation with boundary conditions. After making a series of transformations, we convert the Korteweg-de Vries-Burgers equation into an Emden-Fowler equation. An approximate solution in series form is obtained by means of the Adomian decomposition method. The solution is illustrated to agree well with phase plane analysis.
