Session description

In a letter dated 30th September 1695, Fractional Calculus was born within a serious discussion between Leibniz and L’Hopital about the possibility and meaning of half order derivative! Fractional dynamic systems have been dealt almost by mathematicians only during three centuries ago. In the past decades, this subject and its potential applications have gained a lot of importance, mainly because fractional calculus has become a powerful tool with more accurate and successful results in modeling several complex phenomena in numerous seemingly diverse and widespread fields of science and engineering. It was found that various, especially interdisciplinary applications, can be elegantly modeled with the help of fractional derivatives. Since fractional dynamic systems grow, mature and develop, it is very important to focus on the most promising new directions that were formulated based on the modern techniques and approaches presented recently in the field. This special issue will consider strictly strong papers resulted from modern theoretical, experimental and applied aspects in fractional dynamic systems. We also strongly encourage young researchers/PhD students who were obtained new contributions well supervised and guided by experts to submit their eminent papers to this special issue. Note that submitted papers should be explicitly meeting with the Aims and Scope of CAM journal.

Survey on modern fractional calculus

Computational methods for fractional dynamical systems

Fractional Inverse Problems: Modeling and Simulation

Book Description

After presenting the first volume of this two-volume book, presenting a lot of mathematical and theoretical studies and research related to non-integer calculus, the second volume illustrates applications related to this domain. This volume is made up of 11 chapters. The first chapter presents the heuristic power of the non-integer differential operators in physics starting from the chaos to the emergence, the auto-organizations and the holistic rules. The second chapter shows the dynamics of the fractional order chaotic systems along with some applications. The third chapter represents the pressure control of gas engines by non-integer order controllers by showing a novel trend in the application of the fractional calculus to automotive systems. Chapter 4 shows the way to model fractional order equations using state space modeling along with some applications. Another application related to this domain is the thermal diffusive interface. Chapter 5 shows the analysis of a semi-infinite diffuse plane medium along with the equations that model this medium, and some frequency and time domain responses. However, Chapter 6 treats this problem by controlling this plant using the well-known CRONE controller. Chapter 8 presents the adaptive second-order fractional sliding mode control with an application to a water tanks level system. Chapter 9 treats the mechanical aspect by showing the features of the fractional operators applied to this domain. Also, Chapter Nine presents the theory of diffusive stresses based on the fractional advection-diffusion equation. The modeling of drug diffusion during general anesthesia using Fractional Calculus is shown in Chapter 10 and is considered as another application related to the biomedical field. Finally, Chapter 11 represents an overview of the fractional fuzzy controllers by showing the analysis, the synthesis and the implementation of this module. To sum up, this second volume presents applications of fractional calculus in several engineering domains as the thermal, the automotive, the mechanical, the biomedical and much more. Note that this volume was preceded by a first volume that focuses on the mathematical and theoretical aspects of fractional calculus. (Imprint: Nova)

On a fractional Zener elastic wave equation

SP Näsholm,S Holm.

Publication information: FRACTIONAL CALCULUS AND APPLIED ANALYSIS Volume: 16 Issue: 1 Special Issue: SI Pages: 26-50 Published: MAR 2013

http://link.springer.com/article/10.2478/s13540-013-0003-1

 

Abstract

This survey concerns a causal elastic wave equation which implies frequency power-law attenuation. The wave equation can be derived from a fractional Zener stress-strain relation plus linearized conservation of mass and momentum. A connection between this four-parameter fractional wave equation and a physically well established multiple relaxation acoustical wave equation is reviewed. The fractional Zener wave equation implies three distinct attenuation power-law regimes and a continuous distribution of compressibility contributions which also has power-law regimes. Furthermore it is underlined that these wave equation considerations are tightly connected to the representation of the fractional Zener stress-strain relation, which includes the spring-pot viscoelastic element, and by a Maxwell-Wiechert model of conventional springs and dashpots. A purpose of the paper is to make available recently published results on fractional calculus modeling in the field of acoustics and elastography, with special focus on medical applications.

Characterizing the creep of viscoelastic materials by fractal derivative models

Cai, Wei; Chen, Wen; Xu, Wenxiang

Publication information: INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF NON-LINEAR MECHANICS Volume: 87 Pages: 58-63 Published: DEC 2016

http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0020746216302104

 

Abstract

In this paper, we make the first attempt to apply the fractal derivative to modeling viscoelastic behavior. The methodology of scaling transformation is utilized to obtain the creep modulus and relaxation compliance for the proposed fractal Maxwell and Kelvin models. Comparing with the fractional derivatives reported in the literature, the fractal derivative as a local operator has lower calculation costs and memory storage requirements. Moreover, numerical results show that the proposed fractal models require fewer parameters, have simpler mathematical expression and result in higher accuracy than the classical integer-order derivative models. Results further confirm that the proposed fractal models can characterize the creep behavior of viscoelastic materials.
