Occupation of an interval by self-replicating initial pulses is studied numerically. Two different approximates in different categories are proposed for the numerical solutions of some initial-boundary value problems. The sinc differential quadrature combined with third-fourth order implicit Rosenbrock and exponential B-spline collocation methods are setup to obtain the numerical solutions of the mentioned problems. The numerical simulations containing occupation of single initial pulse, non or slow occupation model and covering the domain with two initial pulses are demonstrated by using both proposed methods.

The exponential B-spline basis function set is used to develop a collocation method for some initial boundary value problems (IBVPs) to the Gardner equation. The Gardner equation has two nonlinear terms, namely quadratic and cubic ones. The order reduction of the equation is resulted in a coupled system of PDEs that enables the exponential B-splines to be implemented. The system is integrated in time by Crank-Nicolson implicit method. The validity of the method is investigated by calculating the discrete maximum error norm and observing the absolute relative changes of the conservation laws at the end of the simulations.

In the study, the collocation method based on exponential cubic B-spline functions is proposed to solve one dimensional Boussinesq systems numerically. Two initial boundary value problems for Regularized and Classical Boussinesq systems modeling motion of traveling waves are considered. The accuracy of the method is validated by measuring the error between the numerical and analytical solutions. The numerical solutions obtained by various values of free parameter $p$ are compared with some solutions in literature.

Two cubic B-spline functions from different families are placed to the collocation method for the numerical solutions to the Gardner equation.Four models describing propagation of bell shaped single solitary, travel of a kink type wave, wave generation and interaction of two positive bell shaped solitaries propagating in the opposite directions are studied by both methods. The error between the numerical and the analytical solutions ismeasured by using the discrete maximum norm when the analytical solutions exist. The absolute changes of the lowest three conservation laws are also good indicators of valid results even when the analytical solutions do not exist. The stability of the proposed method is investigated by the Von Neumann analysis.

The exponential cubic B-spline functions together with Crank Nicolson are used to solve numerically the nonlinear coupled Burgers' equation using collocation method. This method has been tested by three different problems. The proposed scheme is compared with some existing methods. We have noticed that proposed scheme produced a highly accurate results.
