This paper presents a direct method for the construction of travelling wave solutions to a higher order KdV equation. The method is based on a generaI form of solution to both the KdV equation and the fifth order KdV equation (FKdV). In this approach a number of unknown constants are involved, and

✦ Synopsis
Soliton solution a b s t r a c t
In this work, the improved tanh-coth method is used to obtain wave solutions to a Korteweg-de Vries (KdV) equation with higher-order nonlinearity, from which the standard KdV and the modified Korteweg-de Vries (mKdV) equations with variable coefficients can be derived as particular cases. However, the model studied here include other important equations with applications in several fields of physical and nonlinear sciences. Periodic and soliton solutions are formally derived.
