One example of testing the local fractional diffusion equation is then considered. The numerical result presented here illustrates the efficiency and accuracy of the proposed computational technique in order to solve the partial differential equations involving local fractional derivatives.engNumerical solutionExtended differential transform methodDiffusion equationLocal fractional derivativesPartial differential equationsjournal articlehttp://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.amc.2015.10.072
