Abstract: We present the finite difference/element method for a two-dimensional modified fractional diffusion equation. The analysis is carried out first for the time semi-discrete scheme, and then for the full discrete scheme. The time discretization is based on the L1-approximation for the fractional derivative terms and the second-order backward differentiation formula for the classical first order derivative term. We use finite element method for the spatial approximation in full discrete scheme. We show that both the semi-discrete and full discrete schemes are unconditionally stable and convergent. Moreover, the optimal convergence rate is obtained. Finally, some numerical examples are tested in the case of one and two space dimensions and the numerical results confirm our theoretical analysis.

TL;DR: In this paper, a solution method for the one-dimensional transient temperature and thermal stress fields in non-homogeneous materials is established, where finite element method is used to space discretize, which results in a system of first-order differential equations.

TL;DR: This paper develops a fast alternating-direction implicit finite difference method for space-fractional diffusion equations in two space dimensions that has a significant reduction of the CPU time from more than 2 months and 1 week consumed by a traditional finite Difference method to 1.5h, using less than one thousandth of memory the standard method does.
