The non-linear space-time fractional Estevez-Mansfield-Clarkson (EMC) equation and the non-linear space-time fractional Ablowitz-Kaup-Newell-Segur (AKNS) equation showed the motion of waves in the shallow water equation and the optical fiber equation, respectively. The process used to solve these equations is to transform the non-linear fractional partial differential equations (PDEs) into the non-linear ordinary differential equations by using the Jumarie's Riemann-Liouville derivative and setting the solution in the finite series combined with the simple equation (SE) method with the Bernoulli equation. The new traveling wave solutions were the exponential functions resulting in the physical wave effects are produced in the form of kink waves and represented by the two-dimensional graph, three-dimensional graph, and contour graph. In addition, the comparison of the solutions revealed that the new solutions have a more convenient and easier format.

1. Introduction

The partial differential equations (PDEs) are very important in studying and explaining the phenomena of mathematical physics. The most widely used scenarios are plasma physics, optical fibers, fluid mechanics, solid state physics, plasma waves, capillary-gravity waves, and water waves. At present, the researchers are interested in studying the exact solutions or the numerical solutions [13] in order to apply the results obtained in the above studies. To study the effects of these matters more closely, it is necessary to study the form of the exact traveling wave solution of non-linear fractional PDEs. There are a variety of methods to solve non-linear fractional PDEs such as generalized Kudryashov method [4, 5], extended Kudryashov method [6], modified Kudryashov method [7, 8], first integral method [911], G′/G-expansion method [1214], fractional sub-equation method [1517], and Poincaré-Lighthill-Kuo method [18, 19].

In 2006, the Jumarie's Riemann-Liouville derivative [20] was given as follows,

Dtαf(t)={f(t),α = 01Γ(1α)ddt0t(tψ)α[f(ψ)f(0)]dψ,0<α<1dndtnDtαnf(t),nα<n+1,n1,    (1)

where α is an order of the fractional derivative.

The important properties of fractional Riemann-Liouville derivatives [21] were discovered in 2009 as follows,

Dtαtk=Γ(k+1)Γ(k-α+1)t(k-α),k0,    (2)
Dtα[f(t)g(t)]=f(t)Dtαg(t)+g(t)Dtαf(t),    (3)
Dtαf[g(t)]=Dgαf[g(t)][g(t)]α=fg[g(t)]Dtαg(t).    (4)

Mansfield and Clarkson [22] introduced the Estevez-Mansfield-Clarkson (EMC) equation in 1997. This equation was applied to understand the non-linear dispersion of patterns in liquid drops. Zhen-Ya [23] suggested the two-parameter family of fully EMC equation E(m, n) in 2002 as follows,

(uym)yyt+δ(uynut)y+utt=0    (5)

where δ is a constant. If (m, n) = (1, 1) then Equation (5) reduces to the EMC equation

uyyyt+δuyuyt+δuyyut+utt=0.    (6)

In 1970, Ablowitz, Kaup, Newell, and Segur [24] purposed the Ablowitz-Kaup-Newell-Segur (AKNS) equations which were motivated by the applications to non-linear optics. The AKNS equation can be reduced to some non-linear evolution equations such as the non-linear Schro¨dinger, the sine-Gordon equations, the kdV equation, and others. The fourth-order non-linear AKNS equation with the parameter β in this form,

4uxt+uxxxt+8uxuxy+4uxxuy-βuxx=0.    (7)

In this article, we have solved the non-linear space-time fractional EMC equation and the non-linear space-time fractional AKNS equation by applying Jumarie's Riemann-Liouville derivative and the SE method with the Bernoulli equation. We have shown the new exact solutions and the wave effects in a two-dimensional graph, three-dimensional graph, and contour graph. Finally, we have compared the new solutions with some effective articles [25] to show that our solutions had a more convenient and simpler form.

2. Algorithm of SE Method

In this section, we discuss the SE method with the Bernoulli Equation [26] for solving fractional PDEs. The general form of fractional PDEs is shown as

G(u,Dxαu,Dyαu,Dtαu,Dx2αu,DyαDxαu,DtαDxαu,)=0,t>0,0<α1.    (8)

This method is described in the following steps,

Step 1. Wave transformationThe traveling wave solution of fractional PDEs is a solution that satisfies

u(x,y,t)=U(ψ),ψ=kxαΓ(α+1)+lyαΓ(α+1)-ctαΓ(α+1),    (9)

where ψ is a general term for a traveling wave, c is a wave velocity constant. We called stationary wave when c = 0. For c>0, the wave moves in the positive direction, and for c < 0, the wave moves in the negative direction [27]. Reducing Equation (8) into an ODE,

Q(U,dUdψ,d2Udψ2,d3Udψ3,)=0,    (10)

where Q is a polynomial in U(ψ) and its derivatives.

Step 2. Solution suppositionThe solution of Equation (10) can be written in the finite series,

U(ψ)=i=0NaiHi(ψ),    (11)

where ai are real constants with aN≠0 and H(ψ) depends on the simple equation (SE) method with Bernoulli equation which states as follows.

H(ψ)=μH(ψ)+ηH2(ψ)    (12)

where μ and η are the non-zero constant. The solutions of Equation (12) have two cases with ψ0 as an integration constant,

Case 1 : μ > 0, η < 0,

H(ψ)=μeμ(ψ+ψ0)1-ηeμ(ψ+ψ0).    (13)

Case 2 : μ < , η > 0,

H(ψ)=-μeμ(ψ+ψ0)1+ηeμ(ψ+ψ0).    (14)

Step 3. Finding the integer NBalance the highest order derivative and non-linear terms in Equation (10) to get the integer N in Equation (10).

Step 4. Solution obtaining

Find the parameters ai, (i = 1, 2, 3, …, N) and c by collecting the coefficients all terms with the same order of Hi, (i = 1, 2, 3, …, N) and setting them to zero [28]. Hence, we constitute the analytical solutions of Equation 10.

3. Applications

We present the traveling wave effects of the non-linear space-time fractional EMC equation and the non-linear space-time fractional AKNS equation.

3.1. The Space-Time Fractional EMC Equation

The fourth-order non-linear space-time fractional EMC Equations [22, 25] is stated as follows,

Dy3αDtαu+δDyαuDyαDtαu+δDy2αuDtαu+Dt2αu=0,t>0,0<α1,    (15)

where u = u(x, y, t) and δ is constant. Supposing the solution u(x, y, t) = U(ψ) and applying the transformation

ψ=kxαΓ(α+1)+lyαΓ(α+1)-ctαΓ(α+1),    (16)

where k, l, and c are non-zero constants. The Equation (15) changed into an ODE,

-l3d4Udψ4-2l2δdUdψ·d2Udψ2+cd2Udψ2=0.    (17)

Integrating Equation (17) with zero constant, we get

-l3d3Udψ3-l2δ(dUdψ)2+cdUdψ=0.    (18)

Using the SE method. The solution was set in the form of Equation (11). Next, we balanced the non-linear terms and the highest order derivative of Equation (18). Thus, N = 1. The Equation (11) turned into

U(ψ)=a0+a1H(ψ).    (19)

Replacing Equation (18) with Equation (19). We collected all terms of the same power of H(ψ) and set each coefficient to zero as follows,

H1(ψ):-a1l3μ3+a1cμ=0,    (20)
H2(ψ):-7a1l3μ2η-a12l2δμ2+a1cη=0,    (21)
H3(ψ):-12a1l3μη2-2a12l3δμη=0,    (22)
H4(ψ):-6a1l3η3-a13l2δη2=0.    (23)

Solving the system of Equations (20)–(23), we get

a1=-6lηδ,c=l3μ2.    (24)

By Equations (13), (14), (16), and (24), the exact traveling wave solutions of the non-linear space-time fractional EMC equations are represented in two cases with arbitrary constant ψ0:

Case I: μ>0, η <0,

u(x,y,t)=a0-6lηδ(μeμ(ψ+ψ0)1-ηeμ(ψ+ψ0)),    (25)

Case II: μ <0, η>0,

u(x,y,t)=a0+6lηδ(μeμ(ψ+ψ0)1+ηeμ(ψ+ψ0)),    (26)

where ψ=kxαΓ(α+1)+lyαΓ(α+1)-l3μ2tαΓ(α+1).

Next, we present the example graph of wave effects of the non-linear space-time fractional EMC equation by setting some parameter to obtain proper graph. Equation (25) shows the exact exponential solutions which forms a kink wave effect, increasing from one state to another, with a0 = 0, δ = 1, k = 1, l = 1, μ = 1, η = −1, α = 0.5, 0 ≤ x ≤ 90, 0 ≤ y ≤ 90, and t = 200, 400 shown in Figure 1. We set the parameters a0 = 0, δ = 1, k = 1, l = 1, μ = −1, η = 1, α = 0.5, 0 ≤ x ≤ 90, 0 ≤ y ≤ 90, and t = 100, 300 into an Equation (26), kink wave effect shown in Figure 2.

3.2. The Space-Time Fractional AKNS Equation

The fourth-order non-linear space-time fractional AKNS equation is defined as follows [25],

4DxαDtαu+Dx3αDtαu+8DxαuDxαDyαu+4Dx2αuDyαu-βDx2αu=                                          0,t>0,0<α1,    (27)

where u = u(x, y, t) and β is constant. Similar to the previous equation, we set the solution and transform Equation (27) by Equation (16), we obtain

-4ckd2Udψ2-ck3d4Udψ4+8k2ldUdψ·d2Udψ2+4k2ldUdψ·d2Udψ2-βk2d2Udψ2=0                    -(4c+βk)d2Udψ2-ck2d4Udψ4+12kldUdψ·d2Udψ2=0.    (28)

Integrating Equation (28) and set constant to zero,

-(4c+βk)dUdψ-ck2d3Udψ3+6kl(dUdψ)2=0.    (29)

Balancing Equation (29), we got N = 1. Thus, Equation (11) changed to

U(ψ)=a0+a1H(ψ).    (30)

Replacing Equation (29) with Equation (30). Collecting all terms which have the same power of H(ψ). Setting each coefficient of them to zero, we have

H1(ψ):-a1cμ-a1βkμ-a1ck2μ3=0,    (31)
H2(ψ):-4a1cη-a1βkη-7a1ck2μ2η+6a12klμ2=0,    (32)
H3(ψ):-12a1ck2μη2+12a12klμη=0,    (33)
H4(ψ):-6a1ck2η3+6a12klη2=0.    (34)

Solving Equations (31)–(34), we get

a1=-βk2η24lη+k2lμ2,c=-βkη4η+k2μ2.    (35)

Substituting Equation (35) into Equations (16), (25), and (26), the exact traveling wave solutions of the non-linear space-time fractional AKNS equation can be explained as follows with arbitrary constant ψ0:

Case I: μ>0, η <0,

u(x,y,t)=a0-(βk2η24lη+k2lμ2)(μeμ(ψ+ψ0)1-ηeμ(ψ+ψ0)),    (36)

Case II: μ <0, η>0,

u(x,y,t)=a0+(βk2η24lη+k2lμ2)(μeμ(ψ+ψ0)1+ηeμ(ψ+ψ0)),    (37)

where ψ=kxαΓ(α+1)+lyαΓ(α+1)+βkηtα(4η+k2μ2)Γ(α+1).

We set some parameter to get the example graph of wave effects of the non-linear space-time fractional AKNS equation. Equation (36) gives a kink wave effect when setting a0 = 0, β = 1, k = 1, l = 1, μ = 1, η = −1, α = 0.5, 0 ≤ x ≤ 90, 0 ≤ y ≤ 90, and t = 400, 800 shown in Figure 3. Substituting a0 = 0, β = 1, k = 1, l = 1, μ = −1, η = 1, α = 0.5, 0 ≤ x ≤ 90, 0 ≤ y ≤ 90, and t = 200, 600 into an Equation (37), kink wave effect shown in Figure 4.

5. Conclusion

In this study, we solved some fractional shallow water equations and fractional optical fiber equations which are the non-linear space-time fractional EMC equation and the non-linear space-time fractional AKNS equation, respectively. We converted these equations to nODEs by Jumarie's Riemann-Liouville derivative and defined the solutions by an efficient method, the SE method with the Bernoulli equation. The new analytical solutions of the non-linear space-time fractional EMC equation are presented in 2 cases of the exponential solutions as shown in Equations (25)-(26). After we set some parameters, the wave effects of this equation were kink waves as displayed in Figures 1, 2. The 2 cases of the new analytical solutions of the non-linear space-time fractional AKNS equation were exponential solutions as appeared in Equations (36)-(37). The kink wave effects of this equation are displayed in Figures 3, 4. Tables 1, 2 showed our solutions have a simpler form compared to the solution obtained by the G′/G-expansion method [25].
