Numerical analysis of time-fractional Sobolev equation for fluid-driven processes in impermeable rocks

Abstract This paper proposes a local meshless radial basis function (RBF) method to obtain the solution of two-dimensional time-fractional Sobolev equation. The model is formulated with Caputo fractional derivative. uses RBF approximate spatial operator, and finite-difference algorithm as time-stepping approach for in time. stability technique examined by using matrix method. Finally, two numerical examples are given verify performance efficiency
