摘要

In this paper, by introducing a new ansatz, a new fractional sub-equation method is proposed for finding exact solutions of fractional partial differential equations (FPDEs) in the sense of modified Riemann-Liouville derivative. For illustrating the validity of this method, we apply it to the space-time fractional Whitham-Broer-Kaup (WBK) equations and the space-time fractional Fokas equation. As a result, some new exact solutions for them are successfully established..
