Abstract :In this paper we discuss the structural stability of an initial value problem defined for the equation u t -u txx + a uu x = b u x u xx +uu xxx insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(i.1); where a , b are constants, x Ğ â , t Ğ â . For the choices of a and b , insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(i.1); describe the nonlinear shallow water waves. Upper and lower bounds are derived for energy decay rate in every finite interval [0, T ] which reveals that only the lower bound of the energy decays exponentially.
