How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

Abstract Nonlinear dispersionless equations can be obtained as dispersionless limits (quasiclassical limits) of integrable hierarchies of equations or by constructing a system of hydrodynamic type. In this paper, the dispersionless limit of the (1+1)-dimensional Fokas-Lenells equation is found. We present Lax pair for this dispersionless equation. As well known, the Fokas-Lenells equation characterizes the propagation of ultrashort nonlinear light pulses in optical fibers. Exact solutions of the dispersionless version of the Fokas-Lenells equation describe nonlinear shock waves in optical fiber systems. By using the obtained results, one can find shock wave solutions of the dispersionless equation, which have different physical applications.
