Applications of Two Methods in Exact Wave Solutions in the Space-Time Fractional Drinfeld–Sokolov–Wilson System

The fractional differential equations (FDEs) are ubiquitous in mathematically oriented scientific fields, such as physics and engineering. Therefore, FDEs have been the focus of many studies due to their frequent appearance in several applications such as physics, engineering, signal processing, systems identification, sound, heat, diffusion, electrostatics and fluid mechanics, and other sciences. The perusal of these nonlinear physical models through wave solutions analysis, corresponding to their FDEs, has a dynamic role in applied sciences. In this paper, the exp-function method and the rational G ′ / G -expansion method are presented to establish the exact wave solutions of the space-time fractional Drinfeld–Sokolov–Wilson system in the sense of the conformable fractional derivative. The fractional Drinfeld–Sokolov–Wilson system contains fractional derivatives of the unknown function in terms of all independent variables. This system describes the shallow water wave models in fluid mechanics. These presented methods are a powerful mathematical tool for solving nonlinear conformable fractional evolution equations in various fields of applied sciences, especially in physics.
