An implicit scheme for time-fractional coupled generalized Burgers' equation

This article presents an efficient implicit spline-based numerical technique to solve the time-fractional generalized coupled Burgers' equation. The time-fractional derivative is considered in the Caputo sense. The time discretization of the fractional derivative is discussed using the quadrature formula. The quasilinearization process is used to linearize this non-linear problem. In this work, the formulation of the numerical scheme is broadly discussed using cubic B-spline functions. The stability of the proposed method is proved theoretically through Von-Neumann analysis. The reliability and efficiency are demonstrated by numerical experiments that validate theoretical results via tables and plots.
