An Operational Matrix of Fractional Differentiation of the Second Kind of Chebyshev Polynomial for Solving Multiterm Variable Order Fractional Differential Equation

الملخص EN

The multiterm fractional differential equation has a wide application in engineering problems.

Therefore, we propose a method to solve multiterm variable order fractional differential equation based on the second kind of Chebyshev Polynomial.

The main idea of this method is that we derive a kind of operational matrix of variable order fractional derivative for the second kind of Chebyshev Polynomial.

With the operational matrices, the equation is transformed into the products of several dependent matrices, which can also be viewed as an algebraic system by making use of the collocation points.

By solving the algebraic system, the numerical solution of original equation is acquired.

Numerical examples show that only a small number of the second kinds of Chebyshev Polynomials are needed to obtain a satisfactory result, which demonstrates the validity of this method.
