In this paper, a modification of finite integration method (FIM) is combined with the radial basis function (RBF) method to solve a time-fractional convection-diffusion equation with variable coefficients. The FIM transforms partial differential equations into integral equations and this creates some constants of integration. Unlike the usual FIM, the proposed method computes constants of integ...

We make use of fractional derivative, recently proposed by Caputo and Fabrizio, to modify the nonlinear Nagumo diffusion and convection equation. The proposed fractional derivative has no singular kernel considered as a filter. We examine the existence of the exact solution of the modified equation using the method of fixed-point theorem. We prove the uniqueness of the exact solution and presen...

The growing number of applications of fractional derivatives in various fields of science and engineering indicates that there is a significant demand for better mathematical algorithms for models with real objects and processes. Currently, most algorithms are designed for 1D problems due to the memory effect in fractional derivatives. In this work, the 2D fractional subdiffusion problems are s...

In this paper, we introduced a new generalization method to solve fractional convection–diffusion equations based on the well-known variational iteration method (VIM) improved by an auxiliary parameter. The suggested method was highly effective in controlling the convergence region of the approximate solution. By solving some fractional convection–diffusion equations with a propounded method an...

The unsteady hydro-magnetic free convection flow with heat transfer of a linearly viscous, incompressible, electrically conducting fluid near a moving vertical plate with the constant heat is investigated. The flow domain is the porous half-space and a magnetic field of a variable direction is applied. The Caputo time-fractional derivative is employed in order to introduce a thermal flux consti...

We propose and study discontinuous Galerkin methods for strongly degenerate convection-diffusion equations perturbed by a fractional diffusion (Lévy) operator. We prove various stability estimates along with convergence results toward properly defined (entropy) solutions of linear and nonlinear equations. Finally, the qualitative behavior of solutions of such equations are illustrated through n...

Operator splitting methods are often used to solve convection di usion prob lems of convection dominated nature However it is well known that such methods can produce signi cant splitting errors in regions containing self sharpening fronts To amend this shortcoming corrected operator splitting methods have been developed These ap proaches use the wave structure from the convection step to ident...

The transport of macromolecules across the renal glomerular capillary wall has been described theoretically using flux equations based on (a) restricted transport through small pores, and (b) the Kedem-Katchalsky formulation. The various assumptions and limitations inherent in these two approaches are discussed. To examine the coupling between macromolecular solute transport and the determinant...

We develop a general framework for finding error estimates for convection-diffusion equations with nonlocal, nonlinear, and possibly degenerate diffusion terms. The equations are nonlocal because they involve fractional diffusion operators that are generators of pure jump Lévy processes (e.g. the fractional Laplacian). As an application, we derive continuous dependence estimates on the nonlinea...
