Fractional dynamics and sensitivity analysis of measles epidemic model through vaccination

Measles is a highly contagious disease that mainly affects children worldwide. Even though a reliable and effective vaccination is available, there were 140,000 measles deaths worldwide in 2018, and most of them were children under the age five years. In this paper, we comprehensively investigate a novel fractional SVEIR (Susceptible-Vaccinated-Exposed-Infected-Recovered) model of the measles epidemic powered by nonlinear fractional differential equations to understand the epidemic’s dynamical behaviour. We use a non-singular Atangana-Baleanu fractional derivative to analyze the proposed model, taking advantage of non-locality. The existence, uniqueness, positivity and boundedness of the solutions are shown via concepts of fixed point theory, and we also perform the Ulam-Hyers stability of the considered model. The parameter sensitivity is discussed in the context of the variance with each parameter using 3-D graphics based on the basic reproduction number. Moreover, with the Atangana-Toufik numerical scheme, numerical findings are depicted for different fractional-order values. The presented approach produce results that are efficiently consistent and in excellent agreement with the theoretical results.

In fact, the proposed schemes are found to portray less error, rapidity, accuracy and consume less computational time among others.

Recent advances in employing the Laplace homotopy analysis method to nonlinear fractional models for evolution equations and heat-typed problems

This study stems from the growing need for effective mathematical tools to tackle nonlinear fractional evolution equations, which find wide applications in physics and engineering. Traditional methods often struggle to provide exact closed-form solutions for such equations, leading to the development of novel approaches. In this context, the combination of the homotopy analysis method with the Laplace transform presents a promising avenue for obtaining exact solutions to these complex equations. By exploring this hybrid approach, the study aims to address the existing challenges in solving nonlinear fractional models and provide a reliable method for obtaining closed-form solutions. In this way, this study focuses on rendering the coupling between the homotopy analysis approach and the Laplace transform in the search for exact closed-form solutions for the class of fractional evolution and heat-typed equations. In fact, this class of equations features some interesting nonlinear Caputo fractional partial differential equations that model dissimilar physical processes in physics and engineering. A generalized recurrent scheme is derived, which is applicable to all the members of the governing class, and further analyzed the application of this very scheme on some test fractional initial-value problems of much concern. Eventually, the method has been found to be advantageous, with various advantages, including convergence to available exact solutions. Thus, of the advantage of the current study is innovative combination of mathematical methods, the applicability of these methods to a special class of fractional equations, the development of a generalized scheme, the successful solution of prototype problems, and the practical advantages of the method.

In this study, I systematically investigate the fractional Whitham-Broer-Kaup (WBK) system and the fractional Coupled Jaulent-Miodek (CJM) equation under the Caputo fractional calculus. The nonlinear fractional differential equation systems are investigated via the Aboodh transform iteration method and the Aboodh residual power series method, thus offering a thorough analytical investigation. The dynamics of the fractional WBK system are accomplished using the Aboodh transform iteration method, and the Aboodh residual power series method is employed to study the behavior of the fractional CJM equation. Using established solutions, we completely analyze their dynamics employing both symbolic computations and numerical simulations. Consequently, novel solutions are identified, and the behavior of these fractional systems in the Caputo operator sense are clarified. The results obtained show good agreement of convergence of the numerical and analytical solutions, highlighting the effectiveness of the schemes adopted for unraveling the complex dynamics of fractional nonlinear systems.

In applied physics and engineering, non-linear fractional types of partial differential equations become increasingly prominent as an estimation technique to explain a wide variety of non-linear phenomena. Throughout this study, we choose to use an adaptable extended tanh-function scheme over a conformable derivative in order to construct a comprehensive closed-form traveling wave solution of the time fractional Cahn–Hilliard and modified Kawahara equations. The mentioned equations, have been used as frameworks for various phenomena such as quantum theory, geosciences, water wave mechanics, and solitary waves in shallow water in the porous medium. The different values of the fractional order of the model can be employed successfully to organize the wave velocity. We recognized numerous forms of solutions by using the computational software, namely solitons type, bell types, kink types, periodic types, multiple periodic, single soliton, singular kink, and other types of solutions that are illustrated using 3D, contour, and spherical. The attained results have effectively handled the previously stated phenomena in various fields of engineering and mathematical physics. The results originating in this study were confirmed by the computational software, which was used to rewrite them as non-linear fractional partial differential equations. We ensure that the technique is revised to make it more effective, pragmatic, and credible, and we pursue more comprehensive exact results for traveling waves, and then for solitary waves.

Contrary to the techniques taken in the literature, which were centered on the usage of the concept of generalized intervals and the idea of piecewise constant functions, our approach is straightforward and based on a novel fractional operator that is more appropriate and demonstrates the solvability and stability of the main problem under less restrictive presumptions. The results are achieved in this paper by using Fixed Point Theory (FPT). The application, which includes an example and supporting images, concludes the paper.

Reaction-diffusion partial differential equations are among the most widely used equations in applied mathematical modelling. In this study, we examine the solutions of one such equation, namely, the time-fractional extended Fisher-Kolmogorov equation. This equation is widely used in the study of population growth and wave propagation dynamics. The technique we consider is a combination of the natural transform and the Adomian decomposition method. Fractional derivatives are considered with singular and non-singular kernels. The existence and uniqueness of the solutions are presented. We analyse two different cases of the proposed problem to determine the validity and efficacy of the proposed scheme. Additionally, numerical simulation is shown, and the nature of the achieved solution is captured in terms of plots for various fractional orders. The outcome demonstrates that the method is straightforward, efficient, and dependable. The proposed method does not require any predetermined assumptions, linearization, perturbation, or discretization, and it prevents rounding errors. Therefore, the technique is ready to be implemented for a variety of nonlinear time fractional partial differential equations.

Separation method of semifixed variables together with integral bifurcation method for solving generalized time‐fractional thin‐film equations

It is well known that investigation on exact solutions of nonlinear fractional partial differential equations (PDEs) is a very difficult work compared with integer‐order nonlinear PDEs. In this paper, based on the separation method of semifixed variables and integral bifurcation method, a combinational method is proposed. By using this new method, a class of generalized time‐fractional thin‐film equations are studied. Under two kinds of definitions of fractional derivatives, exact solutions of two generalized time‐fractional thin‐film equations are investigated respectively. Different kinds of exact solutions are obtained and their dynamic properties are discussed. Compared to the results in the existing references, the types of solutions obtained in this paper are abundant and very different from those in the existing references. Investigation shows that the solutions of the model defined by Riemann–Liouville differential operator converge faster than those defined by Caputo differential operator. It is also found that the profiles of some solutions are very similar to solitons, but they are not true soliton solutions. In order to visually show the dynamic properties of these solutions, the profiles of some representative exact solutions are illustrated by 3D graphs.

On the approximations to fractional nonlinear damped Burger’s-type equations that arise in fluids and plasmas using Aboodh residual power series and Aboodh transform iteration methods

Damped Burger’s equation describes the characteristics of one-dimensional nonlinear shock waves in the presence of damping effects and is significant in fluid dynamics, plasma physics, and other fields. Due to the potential applications of this equation, thus the objective of this investigation is to solve and analyze the time fractional form of this equation using methods with precise efficiency, high accuracy, ease of application and calculation, and flexibility in dealing with more complicated equations, which are called the Aboodh residual power series method and the Aboodh transform iteration method (ATIM) within the Caputo operator framework. Also, this study intends to further our understanding of the dynamic characteristics of solutions to the Damped Burger’s equation and to assess the effectiveness of the proposed methods in addressing nonlinear fractional partial differential equations. The two proposed methods are highly effective mathematical techniques for studying more complicated nonlinear differential equations. They can produce precise approximate solutions for intricate evolution equations beyond the specific examined equation. In addition to the proposed methods, the fractional derivatives are processed using the Caputo operator. The Caputo operator enhances the representation of fractional derivatives by providing a more accurate portrayal of the underlying physical processes. Based on the proposed two approaches, a set of approximations to damped Burger’s equation are derived. These approximations are discussed graphically and numerically by presenting a set of two- and three-dimensional graphs. In addition, these approximations are analyzed numerically in several tables, including the absolute error for each approximate solution compared to the exact solution for the integer case. Furthermore, the effect of the fractional parameter on the behavior of the derived approximations is examined and discussed.

Asymptotic stability of nonlinear fractional delay differential equations with α ∈ (1, 2): An application to fractional delay neural networks.

We introduce a theorem on linearized asymptotic stability for nonlinear fractional delay differential equations (FDDEs) with a Caputo order α∈(1,2), which can be directly used for fractional delay neural networks. It relies on three technical tools: a detailed root analysis for the characteristic equation, estimation for the generalized Mittag-Leffler function, and Lyapunov's first method. We propose coefficient-type criteria to ensure the stability of linear FDDEs through a detailed root analysis for the characteristic equation obtained by the Laplace transform. Further, under the criteria, we provide a wise expression of the generalized Mittag-Leffler functions and prove their polynomial long-time decay rates. Utilizing the well-established Lyapunov's first method, we establish that an equilibrium of a nonlinear Caputo FDDE attains asymptotically stability if its linearization system around the equilibrium solution is asymptotically stable. Finally, as a by-product of our results, we explicitly describe the asymptotic properties of fractional delay neural networks. To illustrate the effectiveness of our theoretical results, numerical simulations are also presented.

Explicit and Approximate Series Solutions for Nonlinear Fractional Wave-like Differential Equations with Variable Coefficients

This work investigates the exact and accurate approximate series solutions of the strongly nonlinear wave-like differential equations of fractional order with variable coefficients utilizing the Laplace residual power series technique in the 2D, and 3D-space. The posed model is a notable model in mathematical physics, engineering physics, and biophysics, to characterize the variations in laser light intensity, and fluid particle velocity distributions in turbulent flows. In the meaning of Caputo fractional derivative, the posed models are solved analytically via simulation of the generalized Taylor formula in the Laplace space. Different from the other analytic methods, an easy recurrence formula for finding the Laplace power series coefficients is derived. To validate the proposed approach, it is applied to three interesting problems. The approximate analytical solutions of studied fractional problems are expressed in fast-converging Caputo-fractional Maclaurin formulas. The results are numerically and graphically analyzed to demonstrate the efficiency and applicability of the technique, as well as to examine the effects of partial arrangement on the behavior of the solutions. Ultimately, the results and numerical simulations indicate that the used technique is an effective approach and accurate tool for solving fractional evolution models and other fractional models arising in nonlinear phenomena.
