Abstract

In this study, we apply an algebraic approach to solve a class of fractional partial differential equations (FPDEs) by utilizing conformable fractional derivatives. This method has been successfully utilized to study and achieve analytical solutions for Drinfeld-Sokolov-Wilson equations. In this approach, we use a suitable fractional transformation and the principles of fractional calculus to simplify fractional partial differential equations into ordinary differential equations.
