On a backward problem for nonlinear time fractional wave equations

In this paper, we concern with a backward problem for a nonlinear time fractional wave equation in a bounded domain. By applying the properties of Mittag-Leffler functions and the method of eigenvalue expansion, we establish some results about the existence and uniqueness of the mild solutions of the proposed problem based on the compact technique. Due to the ill-posedness of backward problem in the sense of Hadamard, a general filter regularization method is utilized to approximate the solution and further we prove the convergence rate for the regularized solutions.

The Approximate and Analytic Solutions of the Time-Fractional Intermediate Diffusion Wave Equation Associated with the Fokker–Planck Operator and Applications

In this paper, the time-fractional wave equation associated with the space-fractional Fokker–Planck operator and with the time-fractional-damped term is studied. The concept of the Green function is implemented to drive the analytic solution of the three-term time-fractional equation. The explicit expressions for the Green function G3(t) of the three-term time-fractional wave equation with constant coefficients is also studied for two physical and biological models. The explicit analytic solutions, for the two studied models, are expressed in terms of the Weber, hypergeometric, exponential, and Mittag–Leffler functions. The relation to the diffusion equation is given. The asymptotic behaviors of the Mittag–Leffler function, the hypergeometric function 1F1, and the exponential functions are compared numerically. The Grünwald–Letnikov scheme is used to derive the approximate difference schemes of the Caputo time-fractional operator and the Feller–Riesz space-fractional operator. The explicit difference scheme is numerically studied, and the simulations of the approximate solutions are plotted for different values of the fractional orders.

Event-Triggered Boundary Control Strategy for a Time Fractional Wave Equation Subject to Boundary Disturbance

In this paper, we investigate the event-triggered boundary feedback control problem for an unstable time fractional wave equation with unknown perturbation at the boundary. To cope with the instability of system when there is no disturbance, the backstepping method is adopted to convert the original unstable system into a stable system. An UDE-based estimator based on low-pass filter is proposed to estimate unknown time-varying input disturbance. With the estimation of disturbance, the event-triggered boundary feedback controller is proposed. It is shown that the event-triggered strategy could asymptotically stabilize system and a positive lower bounded of minimum inter-event time is ensured to exclude the Zeno phenomenon.

On the Fractional Wave Equation

In this paper we study the time-fractional wave equation of order 1 < ν < 2 and give a probabilistic interpretation of its solution. In the case 0 < ν < 1 , d = 1 , the solution can be interpreted as a time-changed Brownian motion, while for 1 < ν < 2 it coincides with the density of a symmetric stable process of order 2 / ν . We give here an interpretation of the fractional wave equation for d > 1 in terms of laws of stable d−dimensional processes. We give a hint at the case of a fractional wave equation for ν > 2 and also at space-time fractional wave equations.
