This paper addresses synchronizing two coupled chaotic FitzHugh–Nagumo (FHN) neurons with weakly gap junction under external electrical stimulation (EES). To transmit information among coupled neurons, by generalization of the integer-order FHN equations of the coupled system into the fractional-order in frequency domain using Crone approach, the behavior of each coupled neuron relies on its pa...

In this paper, a new numerical method for solving the fractional Riccati differential  equation is presented. The fractional derivatives are described in the Caputo sense. The method is based upon  fractional-order Bernoulli functions approximations. First, the  fractional-order Bernoulli functions and  their properties are  presented. Then, an operational matrix of fractional order integration...

The existence of a unique strong solution for the Cauchy problem to semilinear nondegenerate fractional differential equation and for the generalized Showalter–Sidorov problem to semilinear fractional differential equation with degenerate operator at the Caputo derivative in Banach spaces is proved. These results are used for search of solution existence conditions for a class of optimal contro...

In this paper, we incorporate fuzzy reasoning in fractional-order PD controllers. The resulting fuzzy fractional PD controller is investigated in terms of its digital implementation and robustness.
