Fluid mechanics studies are applied in the turbines, airplanes, ships, rivers, windmills, pipes, etc. Under investigation is a generalized (2+1)-dimensional Hirota–Satsuma–Ito equation in fluid mechanics. Via the Hirota bilinear method, bilinear Bäcklund transformation is obtained, based on which the kink solutions are constructed. Breather-wave solutions are constructed via the extended homoclinic test approach. When the periods of the breather-wave solutions tend to infinity, the lump solutions are derived. It is found that the amplitudes and shapes of the breather waves keep unchanged during the propagation. Effects of the coefficients in the equation on the amplitudes and velocities for the breather waves are analyzed graphically.
