The fractional-order Benjamin-Bona-Mahony-Burgers (BBMB) equation is a generalization of the classical BBMB equation. It’s dynamic behaviors is much more complex than that of the corresponding integer-order BBMB equation. The main purpose of this paper is to explore the dynamic behaviors of the fractional-order BBMB equations by using the Fourier spectral method. Firstly, the numerical solution is compared with the exact solution. It is proved that the proposed method is effective and high precision for solving the spatial fractional order BBMB equation. Then, some dynamical behaviors of fractional order BBMB equations are obtained by using the present method, and some novel fractal waves of the the fractional-order BBMB equation on unbounded domain are shown.
