Abstract
A prototype model used to explain the relationship between mechanisms of reaction, convection effects, and transportation of diffusion is the generalized Burgers–Huxley equation. This study presents numerical solution of non-linear inhomogeneous time fractional Burgers–Huxley equation using cubic B-spline collocation method. For this purpose, Caputo derivative is used for the temporal derivative which is discretized by L1 formula and spatial derivative is interpolated with the help of B-spline basis functions, so the dependent variable is continuous throughout the solution range. The validity of the proposed scheme is examined by solving four test problems with different initial-boundary conditions. The algorithm for the execution of scheme is also presented. The effect of non-integer parameter \(\alpha \) and time on dependent variable is studied. Moreover, convergence and stability of the proposed scheme is analyzed, and proved that scheme is unconditionally stable. The accuracy is checked by error norms. Based on obtained results we can say that the proposed scheme is a good addition to the existing schemes for such real-life problems.
