A New Mixed Element Method for a Class of Time-Fractional Partial Differential Equations

A kind of new mixed element method for time-fractional partial differential equations is studied. The Caputo-fractional derivative of time direction is approximated by two-step difference method and the spatial direction is discretized by a new mixed element method, whose gradient belongs to the sim...
