Fractional calculus has been used to model the physical and engineering processes that have found to be best described by fractional differential equations. For that reason, we need a reliable and efficient technique for the solution of fractional differential equations. The aim of this paper is to present an analytical approximation solution for linear and nonlinear multi-order fractional diff...

In this study, we propose a secure communication scheme based on the synchronization of two identical fractional-order chaotic systems. The fractional-order derivative is in Caputo sense, and for synchronization, we use a robust sliding-mode control scheme. The designed sliding surface is taken simply due to using special technic for fractional-order systems. Also, unlike most manuscripts, the ...

In order to develop certain fractional probabilistic analogues of Taylor’s theorem and mean value theorem, we introduce the nth-order fractional equilibrium distribution in terms of the Weyl fractional integral and investigate its main properties. Specifically, we show a characterization result by which the nth-order fractional equilibrium distribution is identical to the starting distribution ...

This communication addresses a comparison of newly presented non-integer order derivatives with and without singular kernel, namely Michele Caputo–Mauro Fabrizio (CF) CF(∂β/∂tβ) and Atangana–Baleanu (AB) AB(∂α/∂tα) fractional derivatives. For this purpose, second grade fluids flow with combined gradients of mass concentration and temperature distribution over a vertical flat plate is considered...

In this paper we develop a fractional Hamiltonian formulation for dynamic systems defined in terms of fractional Caputo derivatives. Expressions for fractional canonical momenta and fractional canoni-cal Hamiltonian are given, and a set of fractional Hamiltonian equations are obtained. Using an example, it is shown that the canonical fractional Hamiltonian and the fractional Euler-Lagrange form...

The theory of fractional calculus goes back to the beginning of the theory of differential calculus, but its application received attention only recently. In the area of automatic control some work was developed, but the proposed algorithms are still in a research stage. This paper discusses a novel method, with two degrees of freedom, for the design of fractional discrete-time derivatives. The...

In this paper, by using variational methods and critical point theorems, we prove the existence and multiplicity of solutions for boundary value problem for fractional order differential equations where RiemannLiouville fractional derivatives and Caputo fractional derivatives are used. Our results extend the second order boundary value problem to the non integer case. Moreover, some conditions ...

In this work, we focus on the fractional versions of the well-known Kolmogorov forward equations. We consider the problem in two cases. In case 1, we apply the left Caputo fractional derivatives for α ∈ (0 , 1] and in case 2, we use the right Riemann-Liouville fractional derivatives on R+, for α ∈ (1 , +∞). The exact solutions are obtained for the both cases by Laplace transforms and stable sub...

In this paper, we consider the numerical solutions of a fractional partial differential equation with Riesz space fractional derivatives (FPDE-RSFD) on a finite domain. Two kinds of FPDE-RSFD are considered: the Riesz fractional diffusion equation (RFDE) and the Riesz fractional advection-dispersion equation (RFADE). RFDE is obtained from the standard diffusion equation by replacing the secondo...

The term fractional calculus is more than 300 years old. It is a generalization of the ordinary differentiation and integration to non-integer (arbitrary) order. The subject is as old as the calculus of differentiation and goes back to times when Leibniz, Gauss, and Newton invented this kind of calculation. In a letter to L’Hospital in 1695 Leibniz raised the following question (Miller and Ross...
