Semi-analytical and numerical study of fractal fractional nonlinear system under Caputo fractional derivative

Abstract

<abstract><p>The article aims to investigate the fractional Drinfeld-Sokolov-Wilson system with fractal dimensions under the power-law kernel. The integral transform with the Adomian decomposition technique is applied to investigate the general series solution as well as study the applications of the considered model with fractal-fractional dimensions. For validity, a numerical case with appropriate subsidiary conditions is considered with a detailed numerical/physical interpretation. The absolute error in the considered exact and obtained series solutions is also presented. From the obtained results, it is revealed that minimizing the fractal dimension reinforces the amplitude of the solitary wave solution. Moreover, one can see that reducing the fractional order $ \alpha $ marginally reduces the amplitude as well as alters the nature of the solitonic waves. It is also revealed that for insignificant values of time, solutions of the coupled system in the form of solitary waves are in good agreement. However, when one of the parameters (fractal/fractional) is one and time increases, the amplitude of the system also increases. From the error analysis, it is noted that the absolute error in the solutions reduces rapidly when $ x $ enlarges at small-time $ t $, whereas, increment in iterations decreases error in the system. Finally, the results show that the considered method is a significant mathematical approach for studying linear/nonlinear FPDE's and therefore can be extensively applied to other physical models.</p></abstract>
