Solutions of Time-Space Fractional Partial Differential Equations Using Picard's Iterative Method

Abstract In this paper, we present Picard's iterative method (PIM) for solving time–space fractional partial differential equations, where the derivatives are considered in the Caputo sense. We prove the existence and uniqueness of solutions. Additionally, we demonstrate the versatility of our proposed approach by obtaining exact solutions for a diverse set of equations. This method is user-friendly and directly applicable to any computer algebra system. The proposed method avoids intricate computations associated with the Adomian decomposition method, such as calculating Adomian polynomials, or the requirements of other methods like choosing a homotopy in the homotopy perturbation method, identification and manipulation of the invariant subspace in invariant subspace method or constructing a variational function in the variational iteration method. Thus, the proposed method is a versatile and efficient tool for exploring systems that involve both temporal and spatial fractional derivatives.

Invariant analysis, exact solutions, and conservation laws of time fractional thin liquid film equations

This present paper investigates Lie symmetry analysis, one-dimensional optimal system, exact solutions and conservation laws of the (2 + 1)-dimensional time fractional thin liquid film equations (TFTLFE) with Riemann–Liouville fractional derivative. Explicitly, we obtain six vector fields and the one-dimensional optimal system admitted by TFTLFE. Then, we perform the symmetry reductions with the help of Erdélyi–Kober fractional differential operator and (2 + 1)-dimensional TFTLFE is reduced into (1 + 1)-dimensional fractional partial differential equations (FPDEs). Additionally, by means of compound variable transformation and the power series expansion method, the solution of reduced FPDEs is obtained and its convergence is verified. Moreover, we derive other solutions for the reduced equations taking advantage of the invariant subspace method. Furthermore, the conservation laws are also established utilizing generalized Noether's theorem. Finally, we construct the exact solution using the method of conservation laws.

An optimization method for solving a general class of the inverse system of nonlinear fractional order PDEs

In this paper, we introduce a general class of the inverse system of nonlinear fractional order partial differential equations (GCISNF-PDEs) with initial-boundary and two overdetermination conditions. An optimization method is considered based on the generalized shifted Legendre polynomials (GSLPs) for solving GCISNV-FPDEs. The concept of the fractional order derivatives (F-Ds) is utilized in the Caputo type. Operational matrices (OMs) of classical derivatives and F-Ds of GSLPs are extracted. Making use of GSLPs, OMs, and Lagrange multipliers method, we reduce the given GCISNF-PDEs into an algebraic system of equations. The proposed approach achieves satisfactory results simply for a small number of the novel GSLPs. In this work, two mathematical examples are illustrated to analyse the introduced method convergence and test its validity as well as applicability.

In the present work, an analysis has been arranged to study the Magnetohydrodynamic of Ree-Eyring fluid with the effect of Hall current between two parallel plates. Initially, both plates are at rest then suddenly plates are bought to steady velocities v0 and v1 at y=0 and y=d respectively. The governing problem is converted to the fractional partial differential equation and then numerically solved by using the radial basis functions collocation scheme. The Crank-Nicolson scheme is applied for the discretization of space derivatives. The numerical computation is performed for 0≤α≤1,0≤m≤1,0≤β≤1. The performance of the method is investigated with the help of tabulated results. The obtained results show the efficiency of the method for different parameters. The numerical results are compared for different fractional orders, and it is concluded that decreasing the fractional order increases the velocity which enhances the flow. Results are tabulated for different time levels, and it is concluded that method produces smooth solution for increasing values of T. Time fractional derivatives play a significant role in understanding non-Newtonian fluids and complex flow behaviors. They accurately model resistance forces in fluid flow, particularly in systems with non-standard behavior. This allows for a more detailed analysis of transient phenomena, providing valuable insights into fluid behavior over time. Ultimately, the use of time fractional derivatives enhances our capacity to describe and predict fluid flow in various practical applications such as physiology, biomedicine, and engineering.

Fractional Boundary Layer Flow: Lie Symmetry Analysis and Numerical Solution

In this paper, we present a fractional version of the Sakiadis flow described by a nonlinear two-point fractional boundary value problem on a semi-infinite interval, in terms of the Caputo derivative. We derive the fractional Sakiadis model by substituting, in the classical Prandtl boundary layer equations, the second derivative with a fractional-order derivative by the Caputo operator. By using the Lie symmetry analysis, we reduce the fractional partial differential equations to a fractional ordinary differential equation, and, then, a finite difference method on quasi-uniform grids, with a suitable variation of the classical L1 approximation formula for the Caputo fractional derivative, is proposed. Finally, highly accurate numerical solutions are reported.

Numerical Approximation of Gaussian Random Fields on Closed Surfaces

Abstract We consider the numerical approximation of Gaussian random fields on closed surfaces defined as the solution to a fractional stochastic partial differential equation (SPDE) with additive white noise. The SPDE involves two parameters controlling the smoothness and the correlation length of the Gaussian random field. The proposed numerical method relies on the Balakrishnan integral representation of the solution and does not require the approximation of eigenpairs. Rather, it consists of a sinc quadrature coupled with a standard surface finite element method. We provide a complete error analysis of the method and illustrate its performances in several numerical experiments.

<abstract><p>In this article, we use the modified extended direct algebraic method (mEDAM) to explore and analyze the traveling wave phenomena embedded in the quintic conformable Benney-Lin equation (CBLE) that regulates liquid film dynamics. The proposed transformation-based approach developed for nonlinear partial differential equations (PDEs) and fractional PDEs (FPDEs), efficiently produces a plethora of traveling wave solutions for the targeted CBLE, capturing the system's nuanced dynamics. The methodically determined traveling wave solutions are in the form of rational, exponential, hyperbolic and trigonometric functions which include periodic waves, bell-shaped kink waves and signal and double shock waves. To accurately depict the wave phenomena linked to these solutions, we generate 2D, 3D, and contour graphs. These visualizations not only improve understanding of the CBLE model's dynamics, but also provide a detailed way to examine its behavior. Moreover, the use of the proposed techniques contributes to a better understanding of the other FPDEs' distinct characteristics, enhancing our comprehension of their underpinning dynamics.</p></abstract>

<abstract><p>In this article, we considered the nonlinear time-fractional Jaulent–Miodek model (FJMM), which is applied to modeling many applications in basic sciences and engineering, especially physical phenomena such as plasma physics, fluid dynamics, electromagnetic waves in nonlinear media, and many other applications. The Caputo fractional derivative (CFD) was applied to express the fractional operator in the mathematical formalism of the FJMM. We implemented the modified generalized Mittag-Leffler method (MGMLFM) to show the analytical approximate solution of FJMM, which is represented by a set of coupled nonlinear fractional partial differential equations (FPDEs) with suitable initial conditions. The suggested method produced convergent series solutions with easily computable components. To demonstrate the accuracy and efficiency of the MGMLFM, a comparison was made between the solutions obtained by MGMLFM and the known exact solutions in some tables. Also, the absolute error was compared with the absolute error provided by some of the other famous methods found in the literature. Our findings confirmed that the presented method is easy, simple, reliable, competitive, and did not require complex calculations. Thus, it can be extensively applied to solve more linear and nonlinear FPDEs that have applications in various areas such as mathematics, engineering, and physics.</p></abstract>

PREFACE — SPECIAL ISSUE ON FRACTALS AND LOCAL FRACTIONAL CALCULUS: RECENT ADVANCES AND FUTURE CHALLENGES

Fractal geometry plays an important role in the description of the characteristics of nature. Local fractional calculus, a new branch of mathematics, is used to handle the non-differentiable problems in mathematical physics and engineering sciences. The local fractional inequalities, local fractional ODEs and local fractional PDEs via local fractional calculus are studied. Fractional calculus is also considered to express the fractal behaviors of the functions, which have fractal dimensions. The interesting problems from fractional calculus and fractals are reported. With the scaling law, the scaling-law vector calculus via scaling-law calculus is suggested in detail. Some special functions related to the classical, fractional, and power-law calculus are also presented to express the Kohlrausch–Williams–Watts function, Mittag-Leffler function and Weierstrass–Mandelbrot function. They have a relation to the ODEs, PDEs, fractional ODEs and fractional PDEs in real-world problems. Theory of the scaling-law series via Kohlrausch–Williams–Watts function is suggested to handle real-world problems. The hypothesis for the tempered Xi function is proposed as the Fractals Challenge, which is a new challenge in the field of mathematics. The typical applications of fractal geometry are proposed in real-world problems.

A NEW PERSPECTIVE ON THE NONLINEAR DATE–JIMBO–KASHIWARA–MIWA EQUATION IN FRACTAL MEDIA

In this paper, we first created a fractal Date–Jimbo–Kashiwara–Miwa (FDJKM) long ripple wave model in a non-smooth boundary or microgravity space recorded. Using fractal semi-inverse skill (FSIS) and fractal traveling wave transformation (FTWT), the fractal variational principle (FVP) was derived, and the strong minimum necessary circumstance was attested with the He Wierstrass function. We have discovered two distinct solitary wave solutions, the square form of the hyperbolic secant function and the hyperbolic secant function form. Then, soliton solutions are cultivated through FVP and the minimum steady state condition. Finally, the influences of non-smooth boundaries on solitons were tackled, and the properties of the solution were demonstrated through three-dimensional contour lines. Fractal dimension can impact waveforms, but cannot affect their vertex values. The presentation of soliton solutions (SWS) using techniques is not only laudable but also noteworthy. The technique employed can also be used to investigate solitary wave solutions of other local fractional calculus partial differential equations.

Breather patterns and other soliton dynamics in (2+1)-dimensional conformable Broer-Kaup-Kupershmit system

<abstract><p>In this work, the Extended Direct Algebraic Method (EDAM) is utilized to analyze and solve the fractional (2+1)-dimensional Conformable Broer-Kaup-Kupershmit System (CBKKS) and investigate different types of traveling wave solutions and study the soliton like-solutions. Using the suggested method, the fractional nonlinear partial differential equation (FNPDE) is primarily reduced to an integer-order nonlinear ordinary differential equation (NODE) under the traveling wave transformation, yielding an algebraic system of nonlinear equations. The ensuing algebraic systems are then solved to construct some families of soliton-like solutions and many other physical solutions. Some derived solutions are numerically analyzed using suitable values for the related parameters. The discovered soliton solutions grasp vital importance in fluid mechanics as they offer significant insight into the nonlinear behavior of the targeted model, opening the way for a deeper comprehension of complex physical phenomena and offering valuable applications in the associated areas.</p></abstract>
