Although many mathematicians have searched on the fractional calculus since many years ago, but its application in engineering, especially in modeling and control, does not have many antecedents. Since there are much freedom in choosing the order of differentiator and integrator in fractional calculus, it is possible to model the physical systems accurately. This paper deals with time-domain id...

There are various fractional order systems existing. This paper deals with the modelling of fractional order systems using an old and unique model structure i.e. state space model. The fractional order process system can be mathematically modelled by state space model. Simulation results validated that the fractional order model using state space is better as compared to other models such as fi...

the complex-step derivative approximation is applied to compute numerical derivatives. in this study, we propose a new formula of fractional complex-step method utilizing jumarie definition. based on this method, we illustrated an approximate analytic solution for the fractional cauchy-euler equations. application in image denoising is imposed by introducing a new fractional mask depending on s...

This paper extends the conventional Model Reference Adaptive Control systems to fractional ones based on the theory of fractional calculus. A control law and an incommensurate fractional adaptation law are designed for the fractional plant and the fractional reference model. The stability and tracking convergence are analyzed using the frequency distributed fractional integrator model and Lyapu...

A generalized thermo-elastic diffusion problem in a functionally graded isotropic, unbounded, rotating elastic medium due to a periodically varying heat source in the context of fractional order theory is considered in our present work. The governing equations of the theory for a functionally graded material with GNIII model are established. Analytical solution of the problem is derived in Lapl...

Abstract: This study aims to generate a model for the problem of beamforming in fractional Fourier domain, through which a general solution for obtaining weighted beamforming in fractional Fourier domain for different criteria might be delivered. In order to generate this model, a description of fractional delay concept is presented, through which the string vector in fractional Fourier domain ...

In this paper, a new comparative approach has been proposed for reliable controller design. Scientists and engineers are often confronted with the analysis, design, and synthesis of real-life problems. The first step in such studies is the development of a 'mathematical model' which can be considered as a substitute for the real problem. The mathematical model is used here as a plant. Fractiona...

First order plus time delay model is widely used to model systems with S-shaped reaction curve. Its generalized form is the use of a single fractional pole to replace the first order (singletime constant) model, which is believed to better characterize the reaction curve. Using time delayed system model with a fractional pole as the starting point, in this paper, designing fractional order cont...
