As fractional diffusion equations can describe the early breakthrough and the heavy-tail decay features observed in anomalous transport of contaminants in groundwater and porous soil, they have been commonly employed in the related mathematical descriptions. These models usually involve longtime range computation, which is a critical obstacle for its application, improvement of the computationa...

Determining the diffusion coefficient based on the solution of the linear inverse problem of the parameter estimation by using the Least-square method is presented. A set of temperature measurements at a single sensor location inside the heat conducting body is required. The corresponding direct problem will be solved by an application of the heat fundamental solution.

We revisit the Cauchy problem for the time-fractional diffusion equation, which is obtained from the standard diffusion equation by replacing the first-order time derivative with a fractional derivative of order b 2 ð0; 2 . By using the Fourier–Laplace transforms the fundamentals solutions (Green functions) are shown to be high transcendental functions of the Wright-type that can be interpreted...

In this paper, the approximate analytic solutions of the mathematical model of time fractional diffusion equation (FDE) with a moving boundary condition are obtained with the help of variational iteration method (VIM) and Adomian decomposition method (ADM). By using boundary conditions, the explicit solutions of the diffusion front and fractional releases in the dimensionless form have been der...
