Entropy, Vol. 21, Pages 597: Analytical Solutions of Fractional-Order Heat and Wave Equations by the Natural Transform Decomposition Method (Entropy)

In the present article, fractional-order heat and wave equations are solved by using the natural transform decomposition method. The series form solutions are obtained for fractional-order heat and wave equations, using the proposed method. Some numerical examples are presented to understand the procedure of natural transform decomposition method. The natural transform decomposition method procedure has shown that less volume of calculations and a high rate of convergence can be easily applied to other nonlinear problems. Therefore, the natural transform decomposition method is considered to be one of the best analytical techniques, in order to solve fractional-order linear and nonlinear Partial deferential equations, particularly fractional-order heat and wave equation.
