Abstract

Purpose

This paper aims to propose a novel approach based on uniform scale-3 Haar wavelets for unsteady state space fractional advection-dispersion partial differential equation which arises in complex network, fluid dynamics in porous media, biology, chemistry and biochemistry, electrode – electrolyte polarization, finance, system control, etc.

Design/methodology/approach

Scale-3 Haar wavelets are used to approximate the space and time variables. Scale-3 Haar wavelets converts the problems into linear system. After that Gauss elimination is used to find the wavelet coefficients.

Findings

A novel algorithm based on Haar wavelet for two-dimensional fractional partial differential equations is established. Error estimation has been derived by use of property of compactly supported orthonormality. The correctness and effectiveness of the theoretical arguments by numerical tests are confirmed.

Originality/value

Scale-3 Haar wavelets are used first time for these types of problems. Second, error analysis in new work in this direction.
