In this paper we study a nonlinear multi-dimensional partial differential equation, namely, a generalized second extended (3+1)-dimensional Jimbo-Miwa equation. We perform symmetry reductions of this equation until it reduces to a nonlinear fourth-order ordinary differential equation. The general solution of this ordinary differential equation is obtained in terms of the Weierstrass zeta function. Also travelling wave solutions are derived using the simplest equation method. Finally, the conservation laws of the underlying equation are computed by employing the conservation theorem due to Ibragimov, which include conservation of energy and conservation of momentum laws.
We study the generalized (2+1)-Zakharov-Kuznetsov (ZK) equation of time dependent variable coefficients from the Lie group-theoretic point of view. The Lie point symmetry generators of a special form of the class of equations are derived. We classify the Lie point symmetry generators to obtain the optimal system of onedimensional subalgebras of the Lie symmetry algebras. These subalgebras are then used to construct a number of symmetry reductions and exact group-invariant solutions to the underlying equation.

This paper aims to study a generalized first extended (3+1)- dimensional Jimbo-Miwa equation. Symmetry reductions on this equation are performed several times and it is reduced to a nonlinear fourth-order ordinary differential equation. The general solution of this ordinary differential equation is found in terms of the incomplete elliptic integral function. Also exact solutions are constructed using the $ ({G'}/{G})- $expansion method. Thereafter the conservation laws of the underlying equation are computed by invoking the conservation theorem due to Ibragimov. The conservation laws obtained contain an energy conservation law and three momentum conservation laws.

The extended Kadomtsev-Petviashvili (eKP) equation in fluids is investigated by using Lie symmetry analysis. The symmetry reductions, together with the simplest equation method, are used to obtain exact solutions of the eKP equation. Finally, we derive the conservation laws of eKP by using multiplier approach.
This paper investigates the flow of a second-grade hybrid nanofluid through a Darcy–Forchheimer porous medium under Cattaneo–Christov heat and mass flux models. The hybrid nanofluid, composed of alumina and copper nanoparticles in water, enhances thermal and mass transport, while the second-grade model captures viscoelastic effects, and the Darcy–Forchheimer medium accounts for both linear and nonlinear drag. Using similarity transformations and the spectral quasilinearisation method, the nonlinear governing equations are solved numerically and validated against benchmark results. The results show that hybrid nanoparticles significantly boost heat and mass transfer, while Cattaneo–Christov fluxes delay thermal and concentration responses, reducing the near-wall temperature and concentration. The distributions of velocity, temperature, concentration, and microorganism density are markedly affected by porosity, the Forchheimer number, the bio-convection Peclet number, and relaxation times. The results illustrate that hybrid nanoparticles significantly increase heat and mass transfer, whereas thermal and concentration relaxation factors delay energy and species diffusion, thickening the associated boundary layers. Viscoelasticity, porous medium resistance, Forchheimer drag, and bio-convection all have an influence on flow velocity and transfer rates, highlighting the subtle link between these mechanisms. These breakthroughs may be beneficial in establishing and enhancing bioreactors, microbial fuel cells, geothermal systems, and other applications that need hybrid nanofluids and non-Fourier/non-Fickian transport.
