The Cattaneo type space-time fractional heat conduction equation (Q1939384): Difference between revisions

The classical heat conduction equation is generalized using a generalized heat conduction law. The authors use the space-time Cattaneo heat conduction law that contains the Caputo symmetrized fractional derivative instead of gradient \(\partial _x\) and fractional time derivative instead of the first-order partial time-derivative \(\partial _t\). The existence of the unique solution to the initial-boundary value problem corresponding to the generalized model is established in the space of distributions. The explicit form of the solution is obtained and numerically compared with some limiting cases.
