Although the nonlinear diffusion equation has been extensively studied and there exists substantial literature in many diverse areas of science and technology, the number of exact concentration profiles is nevertheless limited. In a recent article in this journal (Hill [1]) a brief review of known e
We apply the Lie-group based similarity method to the Carleman-model and calculate the generators of the group depending on four group constants. Heretofore undiscovered classes of similarity solutions will be presented, and already discovered solutions by Ernst and Wick will be rediscovered and cla
The nonlinear diffusion equation arises in many important areas of science and technology and most of the known exact solutions turn out to be similarity solutions. For a general similarity solution involving an arbitrary parameter 1, a new integration procedure is proposed which enables first integ
