A hybrid method for solving time fractional advection–diffusion equation on unbounded space domain

[摘要] In this article, a hybrid method is developed for solving the time fractional advection–diffusion equation on an unbounded space domain. More precisely, the Chebyshev cardinal functions are used to approximate the solution of the problem over a bounded time domain, and the modified Legendre functions are utilized to approximate the solution on an unbounded space domain with vanishing boundary conditions. The presented method converts solving this equation into solving a system of algebraic equations by employing the fractional derivative matrix of the Chebyshev cardinal functions and the classical derivative matrix of the modified Legendre functions together with the collocation technique. The accuracy of the presented hybrid approach is investigated on some test problems.
