Numerical solution of the conformable space-time fractional wave equation

Abstract

In this paper, an efficient numerical method is considered for solving space-time fractional wave equation. The fractional derivatives are described in the conformable sense. The method is based on shifted Chebyshev polynomials of the second kind. Unknown function is written as Chebyshev series with the N term. The space-time fractional wave equation is reduced to a system of ordinary differential equations by using the properties of Chebyshev polynomials. The finite difference method is applied to solve this system of equations. Numerical results are provided to verify the accuracy and efficiency of the proposed approach.
