Fractional calculus (FC) is an important mathematical tool in modeling many dynamical processes. Therefore, some analytical and numerical methods have been proposed, namely, those based on symmetry and spline schemes. This paper proposed a numerical approach for finding the solution to the time-fractional modified equal-width wave (TFMEW) equation. The fractional derivative is described in the Caputo sense. Indeed, the B-spline Galerkin scheme combined with functions with different weights was employed to discretize TFMEW. The L2 and L∞ error norm values and the three invariants I1, I2, and I3 of the numerical example were calculated and tabulated. A comparison of these errors and invariants was provided to confirm the efficiency and accuracy of the proposed method.
