In this paper, a robust, effective, and accurate numerical approach is proposed to obtain the numerical solution of fractional differential equations. The principal characteristic of the approach is the new orthogonal functions based on shifted Legendre polynomials to the fractional calculus. Also the fractional differential operational matrix is driven. Then the matrix with the Tau method is utilized to transform this problem into a system of linear algebraic equations. By solving the linear algebraic equations, the numerical solution is obtained. The approach is tested via some examples. It is shown that the FLF yields better results. Finally, error analysis shows that the algorithm is convergent.

The multiterm fractional variable-order differential equation has a massive application in physics and engineering problems. Therefore, a numerical method is presented to solve a class of variable order fractional differential equations (FDEs) based on an operational matrix of shifted Chebyshev polynomials of the fourth kind. Utilizing the constructed operational matrix, the fundamental problem is reduced to an algebraic system of equations which can be solved numerically. The error estimate of the proposed method is studied. Finally, the accuracy, applicability, and validity of the suggested method are illustrated through several examples.
