Equation
The generalized KdV-Burgers (KdV-B) equation
ut(x , t) = γ(x)uxx(x , t) + 2u(x , t)ux(x , t) + uxxx(x , t). (1)
It is related to the viscous and dispersive medium. The layeredmedia consist of layers with both dispersion an dissipation(modelled by KdV-B) and layers without dissipation (KdV).
γ(x) = 0⇒ KdV ⇒ travelling waves solutions (TWS) aresolitons;γ(x) = const > 0⇒ KdV-Burgers ⇒ TWS are shock waves.
Initial value-boundary problem for the KdV-Burgers :
u(x , 0) = u0(x , a, s) = 6a2 sech2(a(x + s)), ux(±∞, t) = 0 : (2)
This is the initial placement of a solitonu0(x , a, s) = 6a
2 sech2(4a3t + a(x + s))∣∣t=0
moving to the left.For numerical computations x ∈ [a, b] for appropriately large a, b.

We use the KdV-B equation to model a behavior of the solitonwhich, while moving in non-dissipative medium encounters abarrier with dissipation. The modelling included the case of a finitewidth dissipative layer as well as a wave passing from anon-dissipative layer into a dissipative one.
Thus we consider two possibilities for γ(x).
1 The two-layer case: γ(x) = α(1− θ(x)), the Heaviside stepfunction; or γ(x) = α(1− tanh(x)), its smooth analog;
2 The three-layer case: γ(x) = α(θ(x − β)− θ(x + β)), aΠ-form density of viscosity, or γ(x) = α sech2(βx), its smoothanalog with (numerically) compact support.

Soliton in 2-layer medium
This case models a passage from non-dissipative half-space to adissipative one. We take γ(x) = α(1− θ(x)) to present a singleboundary separating these half-spaces.
It is natural to expect each solution to behave as the one of theKdV at the right half-space and as solution of KdV-B at the leftone.
The process of transition from the soliton to the correspondentsolution of the KdV-B is predictable. The transient wave in adissipative media becomes a solitary shock which loses speed anddecays to become nonexistent at t → +∞; and a reflected wave isseen in the non-dissipative half-space, see figures for result ofnumeric modelling.

Three layers
This case models a dissipative barrier between two non-dissipativehalf-spaces. A soliton solution of the KdV equation, meeting alayer with dissipation, transforms somewhat similarly to a ray oflight in the air crossing a semi-transparent plate. We model abarrier by γ(x) = α(θ(x − β)− θ(x + β)) (a Π-form density with acompact support or by γ(x) = a sech2(ax), which is negligiblysmall far from origin.
It is natural to expect each solution to behave as one of the KdVoutside the vicinity of the origin and as a solution of KdV-B nearthe origin.
The numerical experiments reveal that, after the initial shock, weget a soliton of a smaller amplitude to the left of the dissipativearea and a reflected wave moving to the right.

Soliton-like obstacle
Since the dissipation distribution a sech2(ax) has a numericallycompact support the transition process differs, in its form, onlyslightly from that for the Π-type obstacle.

An a priori estimate for refraction
Both height and velocity of a solitonu = 6a2 sech2(4a3t + a(x + s)) are proportional to a2.For a soliton, a2 is a conserved quantity:

KdV-Burgers asymptotic
The KdV-Burgers equation considered below is of the form
ut(x , t) = k · γ(x)uxx(x , t) + 2u(x , t)ux(x , t) + uxxx(x , t), (3)
k — a small parameter.
Put u(x , t) = w(x , t) + k · v(x , t). For w we obtain the KdVequation
wt(x , t) = 2w(x , t)wx(x , t) + wxxx(x , t), (4)
so a soliton, w(x , t) = 6a2 sech2(a(4a2t + x) + s) is its solution

For v(x , t) we get the following linear 3-d order equation
vt(x , t) =
2w(x , t)vx(x , t) + 2v(x , t)wx(x , t) + vxxx(x , t) + γ(x)wxx(x , t)
or
vt = 2·6a2 sech2(a(4a2t+x)+s)vx+2v(6a2 sech2(a(4a2t+x)+s))x+ vxxx + γ(x)(6a

Take KdV-B:

∂tu (x , t) =
3 sech2(3 x))∂2
∂x2u (x , t) + 2 u (x , t)
∂
∂xu (x , t) +
∂3
∂x3u (x , t)
with initial-boundary conditions for the first addendum v of theform:
v(x , 0) = 0, v(0, t) = 6 sech(4t − 6)2,vx(20, t) = 0, vx(0, t) = 6(sech(4t − 6))2)x
Its numeric solution is presented below by the graphs of the firstapproximation sum u1(x , t) = w(x , t) + k · v(x , t). The picturesare similar to ones obtained above numerically for k = 1.

As t → +∞, the value of soliton and its derivatives becomenegligible at any fixed point x . So we have an approximateequation vt ≈ vxxx , whose linear basis consists ofe−λt−(λ/2)x · e±i(
