- Abstract
In this paper, we present two numerical approximation solutions for the updated nonlinear variable order fractional differential equations of diabetes disease. The variable order fractional differential operator is based on the Caputo fractional derivative concept. The first used method is developed using the nonstandard finite difference process, such that a new quick approximation is applied to tackle the nonlinear terms. By applying some reasonable assumptions to the given data, we can prove that this scheme maintains the positivity and boundedness of the discretized solutions. The second method is based on approximation with shifted Jacobi polynomials. The properties of Jacobi polynomials, together with the shifted Jacobi-Gauss-Lobatto nodes were utilized to reduce the proposed system into a set of algebraic nonlinear equations. Furthermore, some numerical experiments are conducted to compare the performance of the introduced schemes. Our numerical simulations show that the nonstandard finite difference approach requires less computational time compared to the Jacobi-Gauss-Lobatto spectral collocation. While the last one is more accurate when used for solving the variable order fractional diabetes model. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
