A new fractional model and optimal control of a tumor-immune surveillance with non-singular derivative operator

TL;DR: Simulation results show that the new presented model based on the fractional operator with Mittag-Leffler kernel represents various asymptomatic behaviors that tracks the real data more accurately than the other fractional- and integer-order models.

On a Fractional Operator Combining Proportional and Classical Differintegrals

TL;DR: The Caputo fractional derivative has been one of the most useful operators for modelling non-local behaviors by fractional differential equations as discussed by the authors. But it is not a suitable operator for modeling the Mittag-Leffler function.
Journal ArticleDOI

On Fractional Operators and Their Classifications

TL;DR: Fractional calculus dates its inception to a correspondence between Leibniz and L’Hopital in 1695 as discussed by the authors, and it has become a thriving field of research not only in mathematics but also in other parts of science such as physics, biology, and engineering.

Review of fractional-order electrical characterization of supercapacitors

TL;DR: This review article is an attempt to present and discuss the main differences between ideal capacitors and supercapacitors, and especially how the performance metrics of the latter depend on the operating frequency, the charging/discharging waveform type as well as their deviation from ideality.

Fractional description of time-dependent mechanical property evolution in materials with strain softening behavior

TL;DR: In this paper, a variable order fractional viscoelastic model is presented to represent the time-dependent evolution of mechanical property including strain softening behaviors, which is applied to analyze the constant strain rate tension and compression tests in ductile metals and soils.

Long and Short Memory in Economics: Fractional-Order Difference and Differentiation

TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that the long and short memory with power law should be described by exact fractional-order differences, for which the Fourier transform demonstrates the power law exactly.

Fractional-order positive position feedback compensator for active vibration control of a smart composite plate

TL;DR: In this paper, a fractional-order Positive Position Feedback (PPF) compensator is proposed, implemented and compared to the standard integer-order PPF, which is found to be more efficient in achieving the same performance with less actuation voltage.
