title: Traveling wave solutions of the time-delayed generalized Burgers-type equations.
abstract: BACKGROUND
  Recently, nonlinear time-delayed evolution equations have received considerable interest due to their numerous applications in the areas of physics, biology, chemistry and so on.
  
  
  METHODS
  In this paper, we obtain traveling wave solutions by using the extended [Formula: see text]-expansion method.
  
  
  RESULTS
  Based on the method, we get many solutions of the time-delayed generalized Burgers-type equations.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  The results reveal that the extended [Formula: see text]-expansion method is direct, effective and can be used for many other nonlinear time-delayed evolution equations.
