Some Solutions of Fractional Order Partial Differential Equations Using Adomian Decomposition Method

Abstract

The Adomian decomposition method is a semi-analytical method for solving ordinary and partial nonlinear differential equations. The aim of this paper is to apply Adomian decomposition method to obtain approximate solutions of nonlinear fractional order partial differential equations with fractional derivatives. The fractional derivatives are taken in the sense of Caputo. The solutions of fractional PDEs are calculated in the form of convergent series. Approximate solutions obtained through the decomposition method have been numerically evaluated, and presented in the form of graphs and tables, and then these solutions are compared with the exact solutions and the results rendering the explicitness, effectiveness and good accuracy of the applied method. Finally, it is observed that the applied method (i.e. Adomian decomposition method) is prevailing and convergent method for the solutions of nonlinear fractional-order partial deferential problems.
