Partial differential equations are known to be increasingly important in today’s research, and their solutions are paramount for tackling numerous real-life applications. This article extended the analytical scheme of the homotopy analysis method (HAM) to develop an approximate analytical solution for Fuzzy Partial Differential Equations (FPDEs). The scheme used its powerful tools, the auxiliary function and convergence-control parameter, in the analysis and optimization, which ensures the convergence of the approximate series solution in addition to considering all necessary concepts from fuzzy set theory to provide high precision in the fuzzy environment. Furthermore, the efficiency was shown by applying the proposed scheme to linear and nonlinear cases of Fuzzy Reaction–Diffusion Equation (FRDE) and Fuzzy Wave Equation (FWE).
This work focuses on solving and analyzing two-point fuzzy boundary value problems in the form of fractional ordinary differential equations (FFOBVPs) using a new version of the approximation analytical approach. FFOBVPs are useful in describing complex scientific phenomena that include heritable characteristics and uncertainty, and obtaining exact or close analytical solutions for these equations can be challenging, especially in the case of nonlinear problems. To address these difficulties, the optimal homotopy asymptotic method (OHAM) was studied and extended in a new form to solve FFOBVPs. The OHAM is known for its ability to solve both linear and nonlinear fractional models and provides a straightforward methodology that uses multiple convergence control parameters to optimally manage the convergence of approximate series solutions. The new form of the OHAM presented in this work incorporates the concepts of fuzzy sets theory and some fractional calculus principles to include fuzzy analysis in the method. The steps of fuzzification and defuzzification are used to transform the fuzzy problem into a crisp problem that can be solved using the OHAM. The method is demonstrated by solving and analyzing linear and nonlinear FFOBVPs at different values of fractional derivatives. The results obtained using the new form of the fuzzy OHAM are analyzed and compared to those found in the literature to demonstrate the method’s efficiency and high accuracy in the fuzzy domain. Overall, this work presents a feasible and efficient approach for solving FFOBVPs using a new form of the OHAM with fuzzy analysis.
