Abstract

In this paper, we investigate a new type of fractional coupled nonlinear equations. By introducing the fractional derivative that satisfies the Caputo's definition, we directly extend the applications of the Adomian decomposition method to the new system. As a result, with the aid of Maple, the realistic and convergent rapidly series solutions are obtained with easily computable components. Two famous fractional coupled examples: KdV and mKdV equations, are used to illustrate the efficiency and accuracy of the proposed method.
