Modified Homotopy Analysis Method for Nonlinear Fractional Partial Differential Equations
Abstract
In this paper, a combined form of natural transform with homotopy analysis method is proposed to solve nonlinear fractional partial differential equations. This method is called the fractional homotopy analysis natural transform method (FHANTM). The FHANTM can easily be applied to many problems and is capable of reducing the size of computational work. The fractional derivative is described in the Caputo sense. The results show that the FHANTM is an appropriate method for solving nonlinear fractional partial differentia equation.
