Abstract

In this chapter, \((G'/G)\)-expansion method is employed to derive new exact solutions of a coupled Boussinesq equation. Three types of solutions are obtained, namely, hyperbolic function solutions, trigonometric function solutions and rational solutions. These solutions are travelling wave solutions.
