From the set of Eqs. (23) - (26) for N , U , Φ along with another set of<br />

Eqs. (19) - (21) for N , U , Φ , we can easily derive the following nonlinear<br />
dynamical equation:<br />

where<br />
and<br />
are respectively the nonlinear coefficient and dissipative coefficient of Eq. (27).<br />
(1)<br />
Equation (27) is the well-known modified Burger equation. The term ( ν / 2 τ ) Φ<br />
in Eq. (27) is due to the effect of non-planar geometry [41, 42].<br />
NUMERICAL SOLUTION OF THE MODIFIED BURGER’S EQUATION<br />
AND GRAPHICAL REPRESENTATION<br />
As mentioned earlier the one-dimensional planar case ( ν = 0) has already been<br />
studied by Paul et al. [38]. In this case, we introduced ζ = ξ − U0τ ′ and τ ′ = τ ,
