A numerical study on the nonlinear fractional Klein–Gordon equation

Abstract

AbstractThis article helps to develop a numerical approach based on Fibonacci wavelets for solving fractional Klein-Gordan equations (FKGEs). The FKGEs are solved with Caputo-type fractional derivative. Using the definition of Fibonacci wavelets, we constructed the operational matrices of integration. These operational matrices of integration led to the development of the collocation method called the Fibonacci wavelet collocation method (FWCM). This method transforms the given nonlinear partial differential equation into a system of nonlinear algebraic equations using collocation points to determine the unknown coefficients. By substituting the unknown coefficients in the method, we obtained the numerical solution of the present approach. We furnish the different error norms for the present technique. The obtained results are compared with the Clique polynomial method. These findings demonstrate the computational attractiveness, efficiency, effectiveness, reliability, and robustness of the proposed method for addressing a variety of physical models in science and engineering.
