Abstract
In this paper, the two-component Degasperis-Procesi system arising in the shallow water theory is investigated. By using a special transformation and the characteristic method, a class of perturbational self-similar solutions is constructed. Such solutions are not only more general than those obtained by Yuen in 2011, but also they may have potential applications in modelling of tsunamis. In addition, the method proposed can be extended to the other mathematical physics models like the two-component Camassa-Holm equations.
