The Shifted Jacobi Polynomial Integral Operational Matrix For Solving Riccati Differential Equation Of Fractional Order, A. Neamaty, B. Agheli, R. Darzi

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

In this article, we have applied Jacobi polynomial to solve Riccati differential equation of fractional order. To do so, we have presented a general formula for the Jacobi operational matrix of fractional integral operator. Using the Tau method, the solution of this problem reduces to the solution of a system of algebraic equations. The numerical results for the examples presented in this paper demonstrate the efficiency of the present method.

Local Fractional Variational Iteration Method For Solving Nonlinear Partial Differential Equations Within Local Fractional Operators, Hossein Jafari, Hassan K. Jassim

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

In this article, the local fractional variational iteration method is proposed to solve nonlinear partial differential equations within local fractional derivative operators. To illustrate the ability and reliability of the method, some examples are illustrated. A comparison between local fractional variational iteration method with the other numerical methods is given, revealing that the proposed method is capable of solving effectively a large number of nonlinear differential equations with high accuracy. In addition, we show that local fractional variational iteration method is able to solve a large class of nonlinear problems involving local fractional operators effectively, more easily and accurately, and …

Solutions Of A Logistic Equation On Varying Time Scales: A Quantitative And Qualitative Analysis, Alexandria Amity Amorim

Theses, Dissertations and Capstones

Time Scale Calculus, introduced by Dr. Stefan Hilger in 1988, combines the study of differential and difference equations into a single topic. We begin with an introduction of sets used in this field, time scales, and build up to the definition of the exponential function on a time scale. The main focus of this work is a study of the solutions of a particular logistic dynamic equation on varying time scales. We study both the analytical and graphical solutions of this equation. Analytical solutions are worked out using theorems from Time Scale Calculus, including properties of the exponential function. Graphical …
