| description | This thesis investigates one-dimensional time-dependent partial differential equations,
focusing on two types of fractional derivative definitions and their properties.
The primary goal is to derive semianalytical approximate series solutions
for the spatial variable ⌫ within a bounded interval [a, b], where a and b are real
numbers. Three powerful numerical methods are employed to obtain approximate
analytical solutions for fractional order partial differential equations: the
variational iteration method (VIM), the Adomian decomposition method (ADM),
and the homotopy analysis method (HAM). These techniques balance the simplicity
of analytical solutions with the accuracy of numerical approaches. The
study includes a comprehensive convergence analysis of the approximate series
solutions obtained from VIM, ADM, and HAM. The differential equation under
investigation is derived from the traditional Fornberg-Whitham equation and the
Helmholtz equation by replacing the integer order time derivative with noninteger
derivatives of order μ in the range n−1 < μ n, for n 2 N, incorporating variable
coefficients. Novel approaches are developed to compute the Laplace transform in
the Atangana-Baleanu fractional derivative operator, enhancing the performance
and accuracy of the semianalytical methods. The research extends to validate
the e↵ectiveness of fractional order methods. To demonstrate the applicability of these techniques, computational analyses of various test problems are provided,
featuring two fractional derivatives and variable coefficients. Comparisons reveal
that the absolute di↵erences between the approximate solutions derived from
VIM, ADM, and HAM decrease with the parameter μ approaches to the integer
order. The findings indicate that the di↵erences between ADM and HAM are
consistently smaller than those involving VIM, signifying that while all methods
yield similar results, ADM and HAM show closer alignment and potential excellence
in specific scenarios. According to the results and graphical representation,
it can be seen that the proposed methods are efficient in obtaining an analytical
solution for time-fractional differential equations. |
