ABSTRACT

In this paper, we present a high-order compact finite difference scheme for fractal mobile/immobile transport model with a Caputo fractional time derivative. The compact finite difference scheme is stable and convergent with convergence order O(τ2α+h4) in L2-norm. Furthermore, because of the non-local property of fractional differential operators, it is necessary to find a fast technique to reduce the computational cost. We develop a fast solution technique which is based on a fast Fourier transform. The computational work will reduce to O(MNlog2N) while the direct method requires the computational cost of O(MN2), where N=τ1 and τ is the size of time step, M=h1 and h is the size of space step. Moreover, numerical results are consistent with the theoretical analysis.
