Nonlinear fractional-order differential equations: New closed-form traveling-wave solutions

The fractional-order differential equations (FO-DEs) faithfully capture both physical and biological phenomena making them useful for describing nature. This work presents the stable and more effective closed-form traveling-wave solutions for the well-known nonlinear space–time fractional-order Burgers equation and Lonngren-wave equation with additional terms using the exp ( − Φ ( ξ ) ) (-\Phi (\xi )) expansion method. The main advantage of this method over other methods is that it provides more accuracy of the FO-DEs with less computational work. The fractional-order derivative operator is the Caputo sense. The transformation is used to reduce the space–time fractional differential equations (FDEs) into a standard ordinary differential equation. By putting the suggested strategy into practice, the new closed-form traveling-wave solutions for various values of parameters were obtained. The generated 3D graphical soliton wave solutions demonstrate the superiority and simplicity of the suggested method for the nonlinear space–time FDEs.
