New Travelling Wave Solutions of Conformable Cahn-Hilliard Equation

Abstract

In this article, two methods are proposed to solve the fractional Cahn-Hilliard equation. This model describes the process of phase separation with nonlocal memory effects. Cahn-Hilliard equations have numerous applications in real-world scenarios, e.g., material sciences, cell biology, and image processing. Different types of solutions have been obtained. For this, the fractional complex transformation has been used to convert fractional differential equation to ordinary differential equation of integer order. As a result, these solutions are new solutions that do not exist in the literature.
