Radical Petrov-Galerkin Approach for the Time-Fractional KdV-Burgers' Equation

This paper presents a novel numerical spectral scheme to handle the time-fractional KdV-Burgers' equation, which is very important in both physics and engineering. The scheme basically uses the tau approach combined with Gegenbauer polynomials to provide accurate and stable numerical solutions. Instead of solving the differential problem together with the conditions, we solve a system of algebraic equations. The method can handle complex boundary conditions. Some numerical experiments are exhibited to demonstrate that this approach is highly efficient and produces results that are better than some existing numerical methods in the literature. This technique offers more advanced solutions for time-fractional problems in various fields.
