Fractional Order Airy’s Type Differential Equations of Its Models Using RDTM

Abstract

In this paper, we propose a novel reduced differential transform method (RDTM) to compute analytical and semianalytical approximate solutions of fractional order Airy’s ordinary differential equations and fractional order Airy’s and Airy’s type partial differential equations subjected to certain initial conditions. The performance of the proposed method was analyzed and compared with a convergent series solution form with easily computable coefficients. The behavior of approximated series solutions at different values of fractional order $\alpha$ and its modeling in 2-dimensional and 3-dimensional spaces are compared with exact solutions using MATLAB graphical method analysis. Moreover, the physical and geometrical interpretations of the computed graphs are given in detail within 2- and 3-dimensional spaces. Accordingly, the obtained approximate solutions of fractional order Airy’s ordinary differential equations and fractional order Airy’s and Airy’s type partial differential equations subjected to certain initial conditions exactly fit with exact solutions. Hence, the proposed method reveals reliability, effectiveness, efficiency, and strengthening of computed mathematical results in order to easily solve fractional order Airy’s type differential equations.
