A numerical method for discrete fractional-order chemostat model derived from nonstandard numerical scheme

‎In this paper‎, ‎the fractionalorder form of three dimensional chemostat model with variable yields is introduced‎. ‎The stability analysis of this fractional system is discussed in detail‎. ‎In order to study the dynamic behaviours of the mentioned fractional system‎, ‎the well known nonstandard (NSFD) scheme is implemented‎. ‎The proposed NSFD scheme is compared with the forward Euler and fourth order RungeKutta methods‎. ‎Numerical results show that the NSFD approach is easy and accurate when applied to fractionalorder chemostat model.
