INTRODUCTION
Partial Differential Equations (PDEs) have numerous applications in various fields of science and engineering
such as fluid mechanic, thermodynamic, heat transfer and physics [1].
Systems of PDEs, linear or nonlinear have attracted much concern in studying evolution equations that describe
wave propagation, in investigating shallow water waves and in examining the chemical reaction-diffusion model
of Brusselator. The general ideas and the essential features of these systems are of wide applicability.
The commonly used methods are the method of characteristics and the Riemann invariants among other
methods. The existing techniques encountered some difficulties in terms of the size of computational work
needed especially when the system involves several partial differential equations [2].
To avoid the difficulties that usually arise from traditional strategies, the reduced differential transform method
[3] form a reasonable basis for studying systems of partial differential equations.
The method, as would be seen later, has a useful attraction in that solution is presented in a rapidly convergent
power series with easily computable components.

Suppose that u x, t is a function of two variables which is analytic and k times continuously differentiable
with respect to time t and space x in our domain of interest.
Assume we can represent this function as a product of two single variable functions u x, t f x g t .
From the definitions of differential transform method, the function can be represented

APPLICATIONS
In this section, we apply the RDTM to three numerical examples of system of linear and nonlinear partial
differential equations to show the efficiency of the method.
Example 3.1: Consider the non-homogenous linear system of partial differential equations
u t v x u v 2
v t u x u v 2
3.1
ux,0 1 e x
3.2
vx,0 1 e x
Where the exact solutions are [4]
u x, t 1 e x t
3.3
vx, t 1 e x t
Applying the basic properties of the RDTM to (3.1) and (3.2) we obtain the following recursive relations:
U k 1 x
V k x N k x
k 1 x
3.4

Vk 1 x
U k x N k x
k 1 x
Where N k x is the transformed form of u v 2 . The first few nonlinear terms are:

And

Where the U k x , Vk x are the transform function of the t-dimensional spectrum.
Now, substitute equation (3.5) into equation (3.4) to obtain the following:

CONCLUSION
In this paper, the RDTM was implemented for solving the non-homogenous linear system, the nonlinear 1+1
dimensional Boussinesq equation and the coupled Burgers equation.
The exact solutions of the three systems of linear and non-linear partial differential equations were obtained by
the application of RDTM, which constitute a significant improvement over existing techniques. This powerful
method can be utilised to tackle complex situations arising in the real world.
