  • the fundamental solution of the space time fractional advection dispersion equation
    Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computing, 2005
    Co-Authors: Fenghui Huang
    Abstract:

    A space-time fractional advection-dispersion equation (ADE) is a generalization of the classical ADE in which the first-order time Derivative is replaced with Caputo Derivative of order α ∈ (0, 1], and the second-order space Derivative is replaced with a Riesz-Feller Derivative of order β ∈ (0, 2]. We derive the solution of its Cauchy problem in terms of the Green functions and the representations of the Green function by applying its Fourier-Laplace transforms. The Green function also can be interpreted as a spatial probability density function (pdf) evolving in time. We do the same on another kind of space-time fractional advection-dispersion equation whose space and time Derivatives both replacing with Caputo Derivatives.

  • space time fractional diffusion advection equation with Caputo Derivative
    Abstract and Applied Analysis, 2014
    Co-Authors: Jose Francisco Gomez Aguilar, Margarita Miranda Hernandez
    Abstract:

    An alternative construction for the space-time fractional diffusion-advection equation for the sedimentation phenomena is presented. The order of the Derivative is considered as , for the space and time domain, respectively. The fractional Derivative of Caputo type is considered. In the spatial case we obtain the fractional solution for the underdamped, undamped, and overdamped case. In the temporal case we show that the concentration has amplitude which exhibits an algebraic decay at asymptotically large times and also shows numerical simulations where both Derivatives are taken in simultaneous form. In order that the equation preserves the physical units of the system two auxiliary parameters and are introduced characterizing the existence of fractional space and time components, respectively. A physical relation between these parameters is reported and the solutions in space-time are given in terms of the Mittag-Leffler function depending on the parameters and . The generalization of the fractional diffusion-advection equation in space-time exhibits anomalous behavior.

  • Optimality conditions for fractional variational problems with dependence on a combined Caputo Derivative of variable order
    Optimization, 2015
    Co-Authors: Dina Tavares, Ricardo Almeida, Delfim F M Torres
    Abstract:

    We establish necessary optimality conditions for variational problems with a Lagrangian depending on a combined Caputo Derivative of variable fractional order. The endpoint of the integral is free, and thus transversality conditions are proved. Several particular cases are considered illustrating the new results.

  • fractional variational problems with the riesz Caputo Derivative
    Applied Mathematics Letters, 2012
    Co-Authors: Ricardo Almeida
    Abstract:

    Abstract In this paper we investigate optimality conditions for fractional variational problems, with a Lagrangian depending on the Riesz–Caputo Derivative. First we prove a generalized Euler–Lagrange equation for the case when the interval of integration of the functional is different from the interval of the fractional Derivative. Next we consider integral dynamic constraints on the problem, for several different cases. Finally, we determine optimality conditions for functionals depending not only on the admissible functions, but on time also, and we present a necessary condition for a pair function-time to be an optimal solution to the problem.

  • Necessary and sufficient conditions for the fractional calculus of variations with Caputo Derivatives
    Communications in Nonlinear Science and Numerical Simulation, 2011
    Co-Authors: Ricardo Almeida, Delfim F M Torres
    Abstract:

    Abstract We prove optimality conditions for different variational functionals containing left and right Caputo fractional Derivatives. A sufficient condition of minimization under an appropriate convexity assumption is given. An Euler–Lagrange equation for functionals where the lower and upper bounds of the integral are distinct of the bounds of the Caputo Derivative is also proved. Then, the fractional isoperimetric problem is formulated with an integral constraint also containing Caputo Derivatives. Normal and abnormal extremals are considered.
