The fractional partial differential equations have wide applications in science and engineering. In this paper, the Kudryashov techniques were utilized to obtain an exact solution of both fractional generalized equal width (GEW)-Burgers and classical GEW-Burgers equations. The general analytical solutions of the two partial differential equations are constructed for n>1. The graphical representation of the solutions is given in comparison with some previous results in the literature. The advantages and disadvantages of the method were listed.

In the present work, we study a one-dimensional laminated Timoshenko beam with a single nonlinear structural damping due to interfacial slip. We use the multiplier method and some properties of convex functions to establish an explicit and general decay result. Interestingly, the result is established without any additional internal or boundary damping term and without imposing any restrictive growth assumption on the nonlinear term, provided the wave speeds of the first equations of the system are equal.
