文摘Basing on the direct method developed by Clarkson and Kruskal, the nearly concentric Korteweg-de Vries （ncKdV） equation can be reduced to three types of （1＋1）-dimensional variable coefficients partial differential equations （PDEs） and three types of variable coefficients ordinary differential equation. Furthermore, three types of （1＋1）-dimensional variable coefficients PDEs are all reduced to constant coefficients PDEs by some transformations.
