Description

In this paper, we consider a modified time distributed-order anomalous sub-diffusion equation for the description of processes becoming less anomalous over the course of time. First, we discretize the integral term using a mid-point quadrature rule and transform the time distributed-order fractional diffusion equation into a multi-term equation. Then applying the backward difference method in time and Galerkin finite element method in space, we present a fully discrete scheme to solve the time distributed-order fractional diffusion equation. Moreover, the stability and convergence of the proposed method are also discussed. Numerical examples are given to verify the accuracy and stability of our scheme.

Citation counts are sourced monthly from Scopus and Web of Science® citation databases.

These databases contain citations from different subsets of available publications and different time periods and thus the citation count from each is usually different. Some works are not in either database and no count is displayed. Scopus includes citations from articles published in 1996 onwards, and Web of Science® generally from 1980 onwards.
