2.5 Variable-order model for time- or space-dependent diffusion
With the increasing study of anomalous diffusion in various engineering and scientific areas, the fractional derivative diffusion models have been extended. Particularly, the variable-order fractional diffusion equation model was proposed to describe anoma- lous diffusion varying with the elapsed time t, travel distance x, or solute concentra- tion, especially for the analysis of solute migration in porous media. In the variable- order model, the order of the fractional derivative is a function α(x, t, f ), where f de- notes the other variables that affect the diffusion process [20]. A representative expres- sion of the variable-order diffusion model can be written as 𝜕 α(x,t,f ) c(x, t) 𝜕 t α(x,t,f ) = K 𝜕 2 c(x, t) 𝜕| x| 2 . (12) Assuming that the memory rate of the system depends only on time, the MSD for plumes described by model (12) can be written as [21] ⟨ x 2 ( t)⟩ = 2Kt α(t) Γ(α(t) + 1) . (13) Anomalous solute transport in complex media | 199 Considering the potential perturbation of the order α due to the random nature of the medium’s physical/chemical properties and solute transport, α might be a ran- dom variable which can be written as α = α 0 + ϵ, where ϵ is a random number [22]. In addition, in order to explore the mechanisms underlying the variable-order frac- tional derivative model, other dynamic systems can also be explored. Therefore, this type of variable-order models may be called the “dynamic order” in many fractional systems. Moreover, the comprehensive study of the dynamic-order system is helpful in complex system analysis and will improve our understanding of the multi-system or multi-physical interaction.
