Abstract
This article investigates a new generalized two-dimensional nonlinear wave equation of engineering physics with various applications in the fields of sciences and engineering. In this study, shock wave and solitary wave solutions were secured via the sine–Gordon technique. Moreover, various new group invariants along-side exact classical results of the equation were achieved through the utilization of Lie group theoretic techniques. Some of the solutions are gained with regards to Weierstrass functions, complex soliton, topological kink soliton as well as singular soliton. Besides, several algebraic and other solitary-wave-type solutions are obtained. Wave dynamics of the solutions are plotted to give more physical meanings to the obtained results and have a better knowledge of what the nonlinear wave equation represents in terms of physical phenomena. Application of the secured results in engineering (signal processing), physics (electromagnetism) and complex media are presented.
