Abstract

We construct the solution of the fractional space-time equations that describe the vibrations of a quasi-one-dimensional fractal elastic string. We give the solution of the Cauchy problem for fractional differential equations with initial conditions. We carry out a numerical analysis and construct the graphic variation of the displacement function of a fractal elastic string. Three figures. Bibliography: 7 titles.
