Abstract In this article, we consider flexural (bending) waves propagating in a homogeneous beam fixed on a nonlinear elastic foundation. The dynamic behavior of the beam is determined by Timoshenko's theory. The system of equations describing the bending vibrations of the beam is reduced to a single nonlinear fourth-order equation for the transverse displacements of the beam median line particles. We state that if the beam stiffness is small compared to the linear stiffness of the foundation, the evolutionary equation is a modified Ostrovsky equation with an additional third-order nonlinear term. For the evolutionary equation, exact soliton solutions are found from the class of stationary waves in the form of a kink and an antikink.
Keywords flexural wave, Timoshenko beam, nonlinear elastic foundation, evolutionary equation, generalization of the modified Ostrovsky equation, nonlinear stationary wave, dispersion
