Abstract
  The Bagley--Torvik equation, which governs the motion of a rigid plate immersed in a Newtonian fluid with viscoelastic damping, represents one of the canonical benchmark problems in fractional calculus. This paper presents a systematic comparative numerical analysis of four established methods for solving ...  Read More
