Analytical solutions for multi-term time-space fractional partial differential equations with nonlocal damping terms

Abstract

AbstractIn this paper, we consider the analytical solutions of multi-term time-space fractional partial differential equations with nonlocal damping terms for general mixed Robin boundary conditions on a finite domain. Firstly, method of reduction to integral equations is used to obtain the analytical solutions of multi-term time fractional differential equations with integral terms. Then, the technique of spectral representation of the fractional Laplacian operator is used to convert the multi-term time-space fractional partial differential equations with nonlocal damping terms to the multi-term time fractional differential equations with integral terms. By applying the obtained analytical solutions to the resulting multi-term time fractional differential equations with integral terms, the desired analytical solutions of the multi-term time-space fractional partial differential equations with nonlocal damping terms are given. Our results are applied to derive the analytical solutions of some special cases to demonstrate their applicability.
