In this article, we consider an inverse problem for a time-fractional diffusion equation with a linear source in a one-dimensional semi-infinite domain. Such a problem is obtained from the classical diffusion equation by replacing the first-order time derivative by the Caputo fractional derivative. We show that the problem is ill-posed, then apply a regularization method to solve it based on th...

This paper develops a novel boundary meshless approach, Laplace transformed boundary particle method (LTBPM), for numerical modeling of time fractional diffusion equations. It implements Laplace transform technique to obtain the corresponding time-independent inhomogeneous equation in Laplace space and then employs a truly boundary-only meshless boundary particle method (BPM) to solve this Lapl...

In a fractional Cauchy problem, the usual first order time derivative is replaced by a fractional derivative. This problem was first considered by Nigmatullin (1986), and Zaslavsky (1994) in R for modeling some physical phenomena. The fractional derivative models time delays in a diffusion process. We will give a survey of the recent results on the fractional Cauchy problem and its generalizati...

in this paper, we present a fractional mathematical model of a one-dimensional phase phase change problem (stefan problem) with latent heat a power function of position. this model includes space-time fractional derivatives in caputo sense and time dependent surface heat flux. an approximate solution of this model is obtained by optimal homotopy asymptotic method (oham) to find an approximate s...

This paper develops strong solutions and stochastic solutions for the tempered fractional diffusion equation on bounded domains. First the eigenvalue problem for tempered fractional derivatives is solved. Then a separation of variables and eigenfunction expansions in time and space are used to write strong solutions. Finally, stochastic solutions are written in terms of an inverse subordinator.
