Abstract


The semi-inverse method was claimed as an extremely simple method in constructing the variational principles for a wide range of nonlinear problems. In this paper, we apply the method to obtain the variational principle for traveling waves of a generalized Benjamin-Bona-Mahony equation. From the performed calculations, we confirm the effectiveness of the method.
