Solvability and microlocal analysis of the fractional Eringen wave equation

Abstract

© The Author(s) 2017. We discuss unique existence and microlocal regularity properties of Sobolev space solutions to the fractional Eringen wave equation, initially given in the form of a system of equations, in which the classical non-local Eringen constitutive equation is generalized by employing space fractional derivatives. Numerical examples illustrate the shape of solutions as a function of the order of the space fractional derivative.
