A modified form of the known nonlinear dynamics equations is proposed which uses quadratic relations to model cubic nonlinearity. It is shown that such quadratically cubic equations are sometimes amenable to exact solutions and that sometimes they make the original problem easier to analyze qualitatively. Occasionally, exact solutions provide a useful tool for studying new phenomena. Examples considered include nonlinear ordinary differential equations and nonlinear partial differential equations of the Hopf, Burgers, Korteveg—de Vries, and Schrödinger types. Some problems are solved exactly in the spatiotemporal and spectral representations. The unsolved problems potentially amenable to the proposed approach are listed.
