Abstract
In this work we demonstrate how the extension of the Evans function method using the compound matrix approach can be implemented to undertake the stability analysis (normally done through numerical means) of nonlinear travelling waves. The main advantage of this approach is that it can easily overcome the stiffness which is normally associated with these kinds of problems. We present a general approach which allows this method to be used for a general class of nonlinear travelling wave problems.
