Fractional relaxation and fractional oscillation models involving Erdelyi-Kober integrals
Abstract
We consider fractional relaxation and fractional oscillation equations involving Erdelyi-Kober integrals. In terms of Riemann-Liouville integrals, the equations we analyze can be understood as equations with time-varying coefficients. Replacing Riemann-Liouville integrals with Erdelyi-Kober-type integrals in certain fractional oscillation models, we obtain some more general integro-differential equations. The corresponding Cauchy-type problems can be solved numerically, and, in some cases analytically, in terms of Saigo-Kilbas Mittag-Leffler functions. The numerical results are obtained by a treatment similar to that developed by K. Diethelm and N.J. Ford to solve the Bagley-Torvik equation. Novel results about the numerical approach to the fractional damped oscillator equation with time-varying coefficients are also presented.
