Numerical solution of a multi term time-fractional convection diffusion reaction equation with variable coefficients subjected to weakly singular solution
摘要
In this work, we propose a computational approach for solving a multi term time-fractional convection diffusion reaction (MTTF-CDR) equation with variable coefficients. The Caputo sense is used to characterise the temporal fractional derivatives. In general, the solutions to these problems often exhibits a weak singularity at the initial time. To deal with the initial weak singularity, we consider a graded mesh on the time domain. The proposed method involves applying the non-uniform L1 formula on the graded mesh for the discretization of time-fractional derivative and a fourth-order compact difference approximation on the uniform mesh for the spatial discretization. The stability and error estimates of the proposed numerical scheme are thoroughly analyzed in the
