ON NUMERICAL SOLUTIONS OF LINEAR FRACTIONAL DIFFERENTIAL EQUATIONS

Abstract

Fractional differential equations have excited considerable interest recently, both in pure and applied mathematics. In this paper, we apply Fractional Adams-Bashforth Method (FAB), Fractional Adams-Bashforth-Moulton Method (FABM) and Fractional Multistep Differential Transform Method (FMDTM), for obtaining the numerical solutions of two distinct linear systems of fractional differential equations with fractional derivatives described in the Caputo sense. The numerical results for the three methods are compared with the exact solution for each linear system by using the relative difference between the exact and the approximate solution at each integration point. The results are given both graphically and tabularly, concluding that...
