By using scalar similarity transformation, nonlinear model of time-fractional diffusion/Harry Dym equation is transformed to corresponding ordinary fractional differential equations, from which a travelling-wave similarity solution of time-fractional Harry Dym equation is presented. Furthermore, numerical solutions of time-fractional diffusion equation are discussed. Again, through another similarity transformation, nonlinear model of space-fractional diffusion/Harry Dym equation is turned into corresponding ordinary differential equations, whose two similarity solutions are also worked out.

In this article, the author has examined the unsteady flow over a rotating stretchable disk with deceleration. The highly nonlinear partial differential equations of viscous fluid are simplified by existing similarity transformation. Reduced nonlinear ordinary differential equations are solved by homotopy analysis method (HAM). The convergence of HAM solutions is also obtained. A comparison table between analytical solutions and numerical solutions is also presented. Finally, the results for useful parameters, i.e., disk stretching parameters and unsteadiness parameters, are found.

In this analysis, we aim to examine the heat transfer and flow characteristics of a copper-aluminum/water hybrid nanofluid in the presence of viscous dissipation, magnetohydrodynamic (MHD), and porous medium effect over the shrinking sheet. The governing equations of the fluid model have been acquired by employment of the model of Tiwari and Das, with additional properties of the hybrid nanofluid. The system of partial differential equations (PDEs) has been converted into ordinary differential equations (ODEs) by adopting the exponential similarity transformation. Similarity transformation is an essential class of phenomenon where the symmetry of the scale helps to reduce the number of independent variables. Note that ODE solutions demonstrate the PDEs symmetrical behavior for the velocity and temperature profiles. With BVP4C solver in the MATLAB program, the system of resulting equations has been solved. We have compared the present results with the published results and found in excellent agreements. The findings of the analysis are also displayed and discussed in depth graphically and numerically. It is discovered that two solutions occur in definite ranges of suction and magnetic parameters. Dual (no) similarity solutions can be found in the range of Sc≤S and Mc≤M (Sc>S and Mc>M). By performing stability analysis, the smallest values of eigenvalue are obtained, suggesting that a stable solution is the first one. Furthermore, the graph of the smallest eigenvalue shows symmetrical behavior. By enhancing the Eckert number values the temperature of the fluid is raised.

AbstractIn this study, numerical solutions of the fractional Harry Dym equation are investigated. Linearization techniques are utilized for non-linear terms existing in the fractional Harry Dym equation. The error norms L2 and L∞ are computed. Stability of the finite difference method is studied with the aid of Von Neumann stabity analysis.

An efficient approach based on homotopy perturbation method by using sumudu transform is proposed to solve nonlinear fractional Harry Dym equation. This method is called homotopy perturbation sumudu transform (HPSTM). Furthermore, the same problem is solved by Adomian decomposition method (ADM). The results obtained by the two methods are in agreement, and, hence, this technique may be considered an alternative and efficient method for finding approximate solutions of both linear and nonlinear fractional differential equations. The HPSTM is a combined form of sumudu transform, homotopy perturbation method, and He’s polynomials. The nonlinear terms can be easily handled by the use of He’s polynomials. The numerical solutions obtained by the HPSTM show that the approach is easy to implement and computationally very attractive.

The aim of the present paper is to study the numerical solutions of the steady magnetohydrodynamic and heat generation effects on anon-Newtonian fluid with radiation through a porous medium by a stretching cylinder. The governing continuity, momentum, and energy equations are converted into a system of non-linear ordinary differential equations by means of similarity transformation. The resulting system of coupled non-linear ordinary differential equations is solved numerically. Numerical results were presented for velocity and temperature profiles for different parameters of the problem are studied graphically. Finally, the effects of related physical parameters on skin friction and the rate of heat transfer are also studied.

In the paper, we discuss some similarity solutions of the time-fractional Burgers system (TFBS). Firstly, with the help of the Lie-point symmetry and the corresponding invariant variables, we transform the TFBS to a fractional ordinary differential system (FODS) under the case where the time-fractional derivative is the Riemann–Liouville type. The FODS can be approximated by some integer-order ordinary differential equations; here, we present three such integer-order ordinary differential equations (called IODE-1, IODE-2, and IODE-3, respectively). For IODE-1, we obtain its similarity solutions and numerical solutions, which approximate the similarity solutions and the numerical solutions of the TFBS. Secondly, we apply the numerical analysis method to obtain the numerical solutions of IODE-2 and IODE-3.

The flow of an incompressible viscous power-law fluid over an infinite rotating disk with uniform suction or injection is studied. The governing differential equations, which are partial and coupled, are simplified to a set of ordinary differential equations by generalized Karman similarity transformation. Numerical solutions of the non-linear two point boundary value problem are obtained by multi-shooting method. The effects of the power-law index and the porous parameter on the velocity fields are discussed for shear thinning fluids.

AbstractThe present work provides a critical assessment of numerical solutions of the space-fractional diffusion-advection equation, which is of high significance for applications in various natural sciences. In view of the fact that, in contrast to the case of normal (Gaussian) diffusion, no standard methods and corresponding numerical codes for anomalous diffusion problems have been established yet, it is of importance to critically assess the accuracy and practicability of existing approaches. Three numerical methods, namely a finite-difference method, the so-called matrix transfer technique, and a Monte-Carlo method based on the solution of stochastic differential equations, are analyzed and compared by applying them to three selected test problems for which analytical or semi-analytical solutions were known or are newly derived. The differences in accuracy and practicability are critically discussed with the result that the use of stochastic differential equations appears to be advantageous.

We present a survey of fractional differential equations and in particular of the computational cost for their numerical solutions from the view of computer science. The computational complexities of time fractional, space fractional, and space-time fractional equations areO(N2M),O(NM2), andO(NM(M+N)) compared withO(MN) for the classical partial differential equations with finite difference methods, whereM,Nare the number of space grid points and time steps. The potential solutions for this challenge include, but are not limited to, parallel computing, memory access optimization (fractional precomputing operator), short memory principle, fast Fourier transform (FFT) based solutions, alternating direction implicit method, multigrid method, and preconditioner technology. The relationships of these solutions for both space fractional derivative and time fractional derivative are discussed. The authors pointed out that the technologies of parallel computing should be regarded as a basic method to overcome this challenge, and some attention should be paid to the fractional killer applications, high performance iteration methods, high order schemes, and Monte Carlo methods. Since the computation of fractional equations with high dimension and variable order is even heavier, the researchers from the area of mathematics and computer science have opportunity to invent cornerstones in the area of fractional calculus.
