Abstract: |
In this paper, a numerical method for fourth-order time-fractional partial differential equations with variable coefficients is proposed. Our method consists of Laplace transform, the homotopy perturbation method and Stehfest's numerical inversion algorithm. We show the validity and efficiency of the proposed method (so called LHPM) by applying it to some examples and comparing the results obtained by this method with the ones found by Adomian decomposition method (ADM) and He's variational iteration method (HVIM). |
