چکیده
Significant deviations from standard Boltzmann scaling, which corresponds to normal or Fickian diffusion, have been observed in the literature for water movement porous media. However, as demonstrated by various researchers, widely used conventional Richards equation cannot mimic anomalous diffusion and ignores features of natural soils are heterogeneous. Within this framework, governing equations transient flow media fractional time multi-dimensional soil space anisotropic were recently introduced authors coupling Brooks–Corey constitutive relationships with continuity motion equations. In study, instead utilizing relationships, empirical expressions, obtained least square fits through hydraulic measurements, utilized show suitability proposed approach other relations literature. Next, a finite difference numerical method was solve The applicability investigated numerically comparison their counterparts. practice, cumulative infiltration values deviate approximation, wetting front may not be consistent traditional estimates equation. such cases, better alternative mimicking physical process they can capture sub-, super-, normal-diffusive processes during infiltration.

Transient MHD Convective Flow of Fractional Nanofluid between Vertical Plates
Effects of the uniform transverse magnetic field on the transient free convective flows of a nanofluid with generalized thermal transport between two vertical parallel plates have been analyzed. The fluid temperature is described by a time-fractional differential equation with Caputo derivatives. Closed form of the temperature field is obtained by using the Laplace transform and fractional deri...

In this article, we have discussed a new application of modification of hat functions on nonlinear multi-order fractional differential equations. The operational matrix of fractional integration is derived and used to transform the main equation to a system of algebraic equations. The method provides the solution in the form of a rapidly convergent series. Furthermore, error analysis of the pro...
متن کاملNumerical study of fractional nonlinear Schrödinger equations.
Using a Fourier spectral method, we provide a detailed numerical investigation of dispersive Schrödinger-type equations involving a fractional Laplacian in an one-dimensional case. By an appropriate choice of the dispersive exponent, both mass and energy sub- and supercritical regimes can be identified. This allows us to study the possibility of finite time blow-up versus global existence, the ...
متن کاملNumerical simulation of the fractional Bloch equations
In physics and chemistry, specifically in NMR (nuclear magnetic resonance) or MRI (magnetic resonance imaging), or ESR (electron spin resonance) the Bloch equations are a set of macroscopic equations that are used to calculate the nuclear magnetization M = (Mx,My,Mz) as a function of time when relaxation times T1 and T2 are present. Recently, some fractional models have been proposed for the Bl...
