TY - JOUR TI - Local fractional derivative: A powerful tool to model the fractal differential equation AU - Yao Shawen AU - Wang Kangle JN - Thermal Science PY - 2019 VL - 23 IS - 3 SP - 1703 EP - 1706 PT - Article AB - In this paper, the modified Fornberg-Whitham equation is described by the local fractional derivative for the first time. The fractal complex transform and the modified reduced differential transform method are successfully adopted to solve the modified local Fornberg-Whitham equation defined on fractal sets.
