Abstract EN
An explicit numerical method to solve a fractional cable equation which involves two temporal Riemann-Liouville derivatives is studied.
The numerical difference scheme is obtained by approximating the first-order derivative by a forward difference formula, the Riemann-Liouville derivatives by the Grünwald-Letnikov formula, and the spatial derivative by a three-point centered formula.
The accuracy, stability, and convergence of the method are considered.
The stability analysis is carried out by means of a kind of von Neumann method adapted to fractional equations.
The convergence analysis is accomplished with a similar procedure.
The von-Neumann stability analysis predicted very accurately the conditions under which the present explicit method is stable.
This was thoroughly checked by means of extensive numerical integrations.
