Abstract

This article proposes a numerical method to find the numerical solutions of the time-fractional diffusion equations involving fractional distributed order operator of Caputo type. Using the finite difference approach, we solve these equations by applying the semi-discrete method regarding the time variable and the fully-discrete method regarding the spatial variable. For the distributed integral part with respect to time, the Gauss–Legendre quadrature formula is applied and to estimate the multi-term time-fractional operator, including the Caputo fractional derivative, the L2 -1 approach is utilized. In addition, the error analysis and stability of the proposed numerical method are studied in this work. Finally, some numerical examples are provided to demonstrate the accuracy and efficiency of the suggested method. These examples are compared to several numerical previous methods stated in the articles, and the results show that the accuracy of our method is superior to these methods.
