Approximate solutions for time-fractional two-component evolutionary system of order $2$ using coupled fractional reduced differential transform method

In this paper, Coupled Fractional Reduced Differential Transform method is extended to apply to the generalized time-fractional two-component evolutionary system of order 2. By using this method, the solutions in the form of a generalized Taylor series are obtained. The graphics of numerical solutions together with the error analysis demonstrate that the present method is effective and accurate for obtaining approximate solutions of fractional coupled equations. Moreover, the results also indicate that the solutions obtained by residual power series method in previous literature (M. Alquran, Analytical solution of time-fractional two-component evolutionary system of order 2 by residual power series method, J. Appl. Anal. Comput.,5(2015)(4), 589-599.) contain errors.

The dependence on fractional orders of mild solutions to the fractional diffusion equation with memory

In this paper we investigate the Cauchy problem for a fractional diffusion equation and the time-fractional derivative is taken in the Caputo type sense. We give a representation of solutions under Fourier series and analyze initial value problems for the semi-linear fractional diffusion equation with a memory term. We also discuss the stability of the fractional derivative order for the time under some assumptions on the input data. Our key idea is to use Mittag-Leffler functions, the Banach fixed point theorem, and some Sobolev embeddings.

The aim of this paper is to present a new numerical method for solving a wide class of fractional partial differential equations (FPDEs) such as wave-diffusion equations, modified anomalous fractional sub-diffusion equations, time-fractional telegraph equations. The proposed method is based on the Fourier series expansion along the spatial coordinate which transforms the original equation into a sequence of multi-term fractional ordinary differential equations (ODEs). These fractional equations are solved by the use of a new efficient numerical technique – the backward substitution method. The numerical examples confirm the high accuracy and efficiency of the proposed numerical scheme in solving FPDEs with variable in time coefficients.

In this present investigation, we proposed a reliable and new algorithm for solving time-fractional differential models arising from physics and engineering. This algorithm employs the Shehu transform method, and then nonlinearity term is decomposed. We apply the algorithm to solve many models of practical importance and the outcomes show that the method is efficient, precise, and easy to use. Closed form solutions are obtained in many cases, and exact solutions are obtained in some special cases. Furthermore, solution profiles are presented to show the behavior of the obtained results in other to better understand the effect of the fractional order.

In this paper, we applied relatively new analytical techniques, the homotopy analysis method (HAM) and the Adomian’s decomposition method (ADM) for solving time-fractional Fornberg–Whitham equation. The homotopy analysis method contains the auxiliary parameter, which provides us with a simple way to adjust and control the convergence region of solution series. The fractional derivatives are described in the Caputo sense. A comparison is made the between HAM and ADM results. The present methods performs extremely well in terms of efficiency and simplicity.
