Solutions of a fractional oscillator by using differential transform method

In this paper, we present an efficient algorithm for solving a fractional oscillator using the differential transform method. The fractional derivatives are described in the Caputo sense. The application of differential transform method, developed for differential equations of integer order, is extended to derive approximate analytical solutions of a fractional oscillator. The method provides the solution in the form of a rapidly convergent series. Numerical examples are used to illustrate the preciseness and effectiveness of the proposed method.
