Modified wavelets-based algorithm for nonlinear delay differential equations of fractional order

Most of the physical phenomena located around us are nonlinear in nature and their solutions are of great significance for scientists and engineers. In order to have a better representation of these physical phenomena, fractional calculus is developed. Some of these nonlinear physical models can be represented in the form of delay differential equations of fractional order. In this article, a new method named Gegenbauer Wavelets Steps Method is proposed using Gegenbauer polynomials and method of steps for solving nonlinear fractional delay differential equations. Method of steps is used to convert the fractional nonlinear fractional delay differential equation into a fractional nonlinear differential equation and then Gegenbauer wavelet method is applied at each iteration of fractional differential equation to find the solution. To check the accuracy and efficiency of the proposed method, the proposed method is implemented on different nonlinear fractional delay differential equations including singular-type problems also.
