Introduction In this paper, we study the dynamical behavior of the Green–Naghdi (GN) equations [3, 4]. Specifically, we determine traveling wave solutions and new solitary wave solutions for the GN equations: ηt + (uη)x = 0, ut + uux + ηx = 1 3η ( ) d η 2 (ηux ) . dt x () () The Green–Naghdi equations were derived for both free-surface and interfacial-surface waves under the assumption of long wavelengths. Here, η and u represent the surface disturbance and the mean horizontal velocity, respectively. The GN equations were originally developed by Green and Naghdi in 1974 to analyze some nonlinear free-surface flows. After the successful application of the GN equations to nonlinear ship wave-making problems [2], the method was applied to many nonlinear water wave problems. Later, the model was extended to deep-water waves by Webster and Kim and by
