A coupled fractional thermistor system demonstrating existence, uniqueness, and simulation results with two-point boundary conditions

This paper studies a coupled system of Caputo fractional differential equations of orders α, β∈(1,2], subject to two-point boundary conditions. The model incorporates nonlinear nonlocal integral terms that capture the memory-dependent interactions between thermal and electrical dynamics in thermistor materials. We rigorously establish existence via Schaefer’s fixed-point theorem and uniqueness through Banach’s contraction principle in a Banach space of continuous and continuously differentiable functions. Additionally, we analyze Ulam–Hyers stability to quantify solution sensitivity to initial perturbations. A numerical example highlights the effects of fractional orders and nonlocal feedback on system behavior. This work generalizes classical thermistor models and provides a robust framework for thermo-electrical devices with memory effects and spatially distributed conduction.
