Abstract: |
Reaction-diffusion models are used in different areas of chemistry problems. Also, coupled reaction-diffusion systems describing the spatio- temporal dynamics of competition models have been widely applied in many real world problems. In this paper, we consider a coupled fractional system with diffusion and competition terms in ecology, and reaction-diffusion growth model of fractional order with Allee effect describing and analyzing the spread dynamic of a single population under different dispersal and growth rates. Finding the exact solutions of such models are very helpful in the theories and numerical studies. Exact traveling wave solutions of the above reaction-diffusion models are found by means of the $Q$-function method. Moreover, graphic illustrations in two and three dimensional plots of some of the obtained solutions are also given to predict their behaviours. |
