A collocation-shooting method for solving fractional boundary value problems

In this paper, we discuss the numerical solution of special class of fractional boundary value problems of order 2. The method of solution is based on a conjugating collocation and spline analysis combined with shooting method. A theoretical analysis about the existence and uniqueness of exact solution for the present class is proven. Two examples involving Bagley–Torvik equation subject to boundary conditions are also presented; numerical results illustrate the accuracy of the present scheme.
