    A TUTORIAL INTRODUCTION TO THE TWO-SCALE FRACTAL CALCULUS AND ITS APPLICATION TO THE FRACTAL ZHIBER–SHABAT OSCILLATOR

    Fractals01 Dec 2021

    In this paper, a tutorial introduction to the two-scale fractal calculus is given. The two-scale fractal derivative is conformable with the traditional differential derivatives. When the fractal dimensions tend to an integer value, its basic properties are discussed, and the fractal Zhiber–Shabat oscillator is used as an example to reveal the basic properties of a fractal differential equation. The two-scale transform is used to convert the nonlinear Zhiber–Shabat oscillator with the fractal derivatives to the traditional model. The homotopy perturbation method has been demonstrated under a suitable transformation of the system containing several exponential nonlinear terms to the famous Helmholtz–Duffing oscillator. Stability behavior is discussed. Several numerical illustrations are also provided to exhibit the integrity of the introduced formulation. It is demonstrated that the proposed formulation is accurate enough for highly nonlinear differential equations containing large nonlinear terms.
