Meshless analysis of fractional diffusion-wave equations by generalized finite difference method

In this paper, a meshless generalized finite difference method (GFDM) is proposed to solve the time fractional diffusion-wave (TFDW) equations. A second-order temporal discretization scheme is developed to tackle the Caputo fractional derivative, and then spatial discretization formulas are derived by the GFDM. Theoretical accuracy and convergence of the GFDM for TFDW equations are analyzed. Numerical results verify the theoretical results and the efficiency of the method.
