Solutions of a three-dimensional multi-term fractional anomalous solute transport model for contamination in groundwater

The study presents a meshless computational approach for simulating the three-dimensional multi-term time-fractional mobile-immobile diffusion equation in the Caputo sense. The methodology combines a stable Crank-Nicolson time-integration scheme with the definition of the Caputo derivative to discre...
