A Modified Residual Power Series Method for the Approximate Solution of Two-Dimensional Fractional Helmholtz Equations.

In this paper, we suggest a modification for the residual power series method that is used to solve fractional-order Helmholtz equations, which is called the Shehu-transform residual power series method (S T-RPSM). This scheme uses a combination of the Shehu transform (S T) and the residual power series method (RPSM). The fractional derivatives are taken with respect to Caputo order. The novelty of this approach is that it does not restrict the fractional order and reduces the need for heavy computational work. The results were obtained using an iterative series that led to an exact solution. The 3D graphical plots for different values of fractional orders are shown to compare S T-RPSM results with exact solutions. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
