Analytical Investigation of Fractional-Order Cahn–Hilliard and Gardner Equations Using Two Novel Techniques

Abstract

In this paper, we used the natural decomposition approach with non-singular kernel derivatives to find the solution to nonlinear fractional Gardner and Cahn–Hilliard equations arising in fluid flow. The fractional derivative is considered an Atangana–Baleanu derivative in Caputo manner (ABC) and Caputo–Fabrizio (CF) throughout this paper. We implement natural transform with the aid of the suggested derivatives to obtain the solution of nonlinear fractional Gardner and Cahn–Hilliard equations followed by inverse natural transform. To show the accuracy and validity of the proposed methods, we focused on two nonlinear problems and compared it with the exact and other method results. Additionally, the behavior of the results is demonstrated through tables and figures that are in strong agreement with the exact solutions.
