Extended Burridge–Knopoff model associated with fractional order and long-range interactions
摘要
The dynamics of the Burridge–Knopoff (BK) model have been modified by taking into account simultaneously the fractional order and the long-range interactions (LRI) of each block. It is shown that the dynamics of the model becomes a nonlinear fractional Schrödinger equation, where the dispersion and non-linearity parameters depend strongly on the order of fractional derivative and long-range coefficients. We found that, for low values of the LRI parameter, the system exhibits an unusual behaviour, indicating a probable earthquake warning. A high value of LRI leads to crucial phenomena. An earthquake can occur at a high value of LRI. At a high value of LRI, the wave’s amplitude increases with time, showing that our system has high energy, which justifies the catastrophic processes observed in earthquakes. The results show that when the fractional order
