Introduction
Nonlinear partial differential equations have shown a variety of applications in almost every field of life, such as in electromagnetics, acoustics, electrochemistry, cosmology, biological and material science [1]- [4].Fractional differential equations can be considered as the general form of the differential equations, as they are involved with the derivatives of any real or complex order (for details see [3]).
Knowing the importance of differential equations of fractional order, lots of authors are working to find the exact or numerical solutions of the equations.For examples, the adomian decomposition method [5], Pade ap-proximation method [6] and generalized differential transform method [7] [8] have been used to find the numerical solutions for fractional order differential equations.The ( ) G G ′ -expansion method was introduced, by Wang et al. [9], to find the travelling wave solutions of nonlinear evolution equations.This method was further extended [10] [11] to find the solutions of fractional order differential equations, the Jacobi elliptic function expansion method [12], the tanh-function method for finding solitary wave solutions [13], the homotopy perturbation method [14], the first integral method [15], the solitary wave ansatz [16] etc.
In this article, a new approach has been developed to find the exact solutions of nonlinear partial differential equations of fractional order by the fractional complex transformation [17] and modified simple equation method [18] [19], in the sense of modified Riemann-Liouville derivative.For this, we first use the fractional complex transformation on these equations to convert into ordinary differential equations.Then, the modified simple equation method can be applied to find the exact solutions.Two applications are being considered to find the solution of nonlinear Burgers' equation with time-space fractional derivatives, which has the following form [5]: and time-spce fractioanl derivative foam drainage equation [11]: The rest of the article is organized as follows, in section 2 the basic definitions and properties of the fractional theory are considered regrading to modified Riemann-Liouville derivative.In section 3, the modified simple equation method has been proposed to find the exact solutions for NPDEs of fractional order with the help of fractional complex transformation.The two applications are being considered to find the exact solution in section 4. In last section 5, the conclusion has been drawn.

The Modified Simple Equation Method
In this section, the modified simple equation method [18] has been discussed to obtain the solutions of nonlinear partial differential equations of fractional order, in very easy way.
For this, we consider the following NPDE of fractional order: where u is an unknown function and P is a polynomial of u and its partial fractional derivatives along with the involvement of higher order derivatives and nonlinear terms.
To find the exact solutions, the method can be performed using the following steps.
Step 1: First, we convert the NPDE of fractional order into nonlinear ordinary differential equations using fractional complex transformation introduced by Li et al. [17].
The travelling wave variable where K, L and M are non-zero arbitrary constants, permits us to reduce Equation (3.2) to an ODE of ( ) Step 2: Suppose that the solution of Equation (3.3) can be expressed as a polynomial of ( ) ( ) ( ) where i A′ s are arbitrary constants.
Step 3: The homogeneous balance can be used, to determine the positive integer m, between the highest order derivatives and the nonlinear terms appearing in (3.4).
Step 4: After the substitution of (3.4) into (3.3),we collect all the terms with the same order of ( ) ψ ψ ′ together.Equate each coefficient of the obtained polynomial to zero, yields the set of algebraic equations for , , , , Step 5: After solving the system of algebraic equations, the variety of exact solutions can be celebrated.
