the immiscible displacement of oil by water through a porous and permeable reservoir rock can be described by the use of a fractional flow curves (fw versus sw). water flooding project parameters can be obtained from the fractional flow curve. however, developing a representative fractional flow curve for a specific reservoir can be quite challenging when fluid and special core analysis data is...

A fractional wave equation replaces the second time derivative by a Caputo derivative of order between one and two. In this paper, we show that the fractional wave equation governs a stochastic model for wave propagation, with deterministic time replaced by the inverse of a stable subordinator whose index is one half the order of the fractional time derivative.

Subdiffusive fractional equations are not structurally stable with respect to spatial perturbations to the anomalous exponent (Phys. Rev. E 85, 031132 (2012)). The question arises of applicability of these fractional equations to model real world phenomena. To rectify this problem we propose the inclusion of the random death process into the random walk scheme from which we arrive at the modifi...

In this article, the (G ′ /G)-expansion method has been implemented to find the travelling wave solutions of nonlinear evolution equations of fractional order. For this, the fractional complex transformation method has been used to convert fractional order partial differential equation to ordinary differential equation. Then, (G ′ /G)-expansion method has been implemented to celebrate the serie...

Abstract. We develop a new infinite dimensional gluing method for fractional elliptic equations. In Part I, as a model problem, we construct a solution of the fractional Allen–Cahn equation vanishing on a rotationally symmetric surface which resembles a catenoid and has sub-linear growth at infinity. In Part II, we construct counterexamples to De Giorgi Conjectures to fractional Allen-Cahn equa...

We consider the fractional cable equation. For solution of fractional Cable equation involving Caputo fractional derivative, a new difference scheme is constructed based on Crank Nicholson difference scheme. We prove that the proposed method is unconditionally stable by using spectral stability technique.

In this paper, Haar wavelet operational matrix method is proposed to solve a class of fractional partial differential equations.

The operational matrix of fractional order differentiation is utilized to reduce the initial ...

In this paper, we consider the numerical solutions of a fractional partial differential equation with Riesz space fractional derivatives (FPDE-RSFD) on a finite domain. Two kinds of FPDE-RSFD are considered: the Riesz fractional diffusion equation (RFDE) and the Riesz fractional advection-dispersion equation (RFADE). RFDE is obtained from the standard diffusion equation by replacing the secondo...
