Abstract :
In this paper a numerical method is developed to solve the Bagley-Torvik equation. The Bagley-Torvik equation is a fractional differential equation which occurs quite frequently in various branches of Applied Mathematics and Mechanics. The solution to this equation is proposed by using second kind Chebyshev wavelet. It finally reduces the equation in to the system of linear equations which can be easily solved. Examples are illustrated to demonstrate simplicity of proposed method. Results are also compared with those present in literature.
