Kernel functions‐based approach for distributed order diffusion equations

Abstract

AbstractIn this work, we solve distributed order diffusion equations (DODEs) by applying the theory on reproducing kernel functions (RKFs). The classical numerical quadrature formulae is used to approximate the DODE to a multi‐term Caputo fractional order diffusion equation (FDE). The Mittag‐Leffler RKF is introduced to estimate fractional derivatives of Caputo. And a space–time RKFs collocation scheme is derived for the multi‐term Caputo time FDEs. The accuracy of the present numerical technique is indicated by employing several experiments.
