This is a generalization of a fractional programming problem (p = 1) which has been investigated quite actively in the last two decades [21 ]. In [20] many of the results in fractional programming are reviewed and extended. An extensive bibliography is given in [22]. An early application of generalized fractional programming (p > 1) is von Neumann's model of an expanding economy [25]. Here the ...

In this work, the fractional mathematical model of an unsteady rotational flow of Xanthan gum (XG) between two cylinders in the presence of a transverse magnetic field has been studied. This model consists of two fractional parameters α and β representing thermomechanical effects. The Laplace transform is used to obtain the numerical solutions. The fractional parameter influence has been discus...

The mathematical model of the distribution of deformation-relaxation and heat-mass fields in capillary-porous materials with fractal structure in the process of drying wood is regarded in the article. We used differential equations in partial derivatives of fractional order in description of this model. To describe the creep of wood fractional exponential Rabotnov’s function was used. The numer...

A new class of fractional 2D linear discrete-time systems is introduced. The fractional difference definition is applied to each dimension of a 2D Roesser model. Solutions of these systems are derived using a 2D Z-transform. The classical Cayley-Hamilton theorem is extended to 2D fractional systems described by the Roesser model. Necessary and sufficient conditions for the positivity and stabil...

This study outlines the local fractional integro-differential equations carried out by the local fractional calculus. The analytical solutions within local fractional Volterra and Abel’s integral equations via the Yang-Laplace transform are discussed. Some illustrative examples will be discussed. The obtained results show the simplicity and efficiency of the present technique with application t...

We present the validation of a recent fractional mathematical model for erythrocyte sedimentation proposed by Sharma et al. \cite{GMR}. The model uses a Caputo fractional derivative to build a time fractional diffusion equation suitable to predict blood sedimentation rates. This validation was carried out by means of erythrocyte sedimentation tests in laboratory. Data on sedimentation rates (pe...

Fractional diffusion equations are abstract partial differential equations that involve fractional derivatives in space and time. They are useful to model anomalous diffusion, where a plume of particles spreads in a different manner than the classical diffusion equation predicts. An initial value problem involving a space-fractional diffusion equation is an abstract Cauchy problem, whose analyt...

The 1D discrete fractional Laplacian operator on a cyclically closed (periodic) linear chain with finite number N of identical particles is introduced. We suggest a ”fractional elastic harmonic potential”, and obtain the N -periodic fractional Laplacian operator in the form of a power law matrix function for the finite chain (N arbitrary not necessarily large) in explicit form. In the limiting ...

Abstract: In this paper, we apply the shifted Legendre polynomial method (SLPM) to solve the fractional Volterra’s model for population growth of a species in a closed system. The SLPM solution procedure for nonlinear fractional integro-differential equations is established. Moreover, the accurate analytical approximations are obtained, which are valid and convergent for different fractional or...

In this work, we investigate the dynamical behavior of a fractional order cholera model. All the feasible equilibria for the system are obtained and the conditions for the existence of interior equilibrium are determined. Local stability analysis of the cholera model is studied by using the fractional Routh-Hurwitz stability conditions. Our results indicate the potential of fractional-order cho...
