For this purpose, Lumped Galerkin finite element (LGFE) method, an effective, accurate, and cost-effective method, is applied to model equation by the aid of quadratic B-spline basis. The efficiency and accuracy of the method are tested with two problems, namely, propagation solitary wave and interaction of two solitary waves. The error normsL(2)andL(infinity)have been computed in order to measure how accurate the numerical solutions. Also, the stability analysis has been investigated.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessfinite element methodinteractionLumped Galerkin methodmodified improved Boussinesq equationquadratic B-splinesolitary wavesArticle4317102041022010.1002/mma.66872-s2.0-85089011128Q1WOS:000555428500001Q1
