Abstract
Abstract In this paper, we show how to approximate the solution to the generalized time-fractional Huxley-Burgers’ equation by a numerical method based on the cubic B-spline collocation method and the mean value theorem for integrals. We use the mean value theorem for integrals to replace the time-fractional derivative with a suitable approximation. The approximate solution is constructed by the cubic B-spline. The stability of the proposed method is discussed by applying the von Neumann technique. The proposed method is shown to be conditionally stable. Several numerical examples are introduced to show the efficiency and accuracy of the method.

Summary
Fractional calculus is a generalization of classical calculus that is concerned with operations of differentiation and integration to fractional order. Several numerical methods have been developed to obtain an approximate solution of fractional differential equations. The generalized time-fractional Huxley-Burgers’ equation whose solutions will be approximated is of the form [20]:. We can obtain approximate solutions of the generalized time-fractional Huxley-Burgers’ equation that have applications in various fields of science and engineering. We have proposed a collocation method for solving the time-fractional Burgers-Huxley equation using the mean value theorem for integrals and cubic B-spline basis functions. In this method, we use cubic B-splines for spatial variables and their derivatives which produce a system of fractional ordinary differential equations.
