Fractional calculus provides some fractional operators for us to model different real-world phenomena mathematically. One of these important study fields is the mathematical model of the elastic beam changes. More precisely, in this paper, based on the behavior patterns of an elastic beam, we consider the generalized sequential boundary value problems of the Navier difference equations by using the post-quantum fractional derivatives of the Caputo-like type. We discuss on the existence theory for solutions of the mentioned (p;q)-difference Navier problems in two single-valued and set-valued versions. We use the main properties of the (p;q)-operators in this regard. Application of the fixed points of the ρ-θ-contractions along with the endpoints of the multi-valued functions play a fundamental role to prove the existence results. Finally in two examples, we validate our models and theoretical results by giving numerical models of the generalized sequential (p;q)-difference Navier problems.

In this paper, a generalized fractional three-species food chain model with delay is investigated. First, the existence of a positive equilibrium is discussed, and the sufficient conditions for global asymptotic stability are given. Second, through selecting the delay as the bifurcation parameter, we obtain the sufficient condition for this non-control system to generate Hopf bifurcation. Then, a nonlinear delayed feedback controller is skillfully applied to govern the system’s Hopf bifurcation. The results indicate that adjusting the control intensity or the control target’s age can effectively govern the bifurcation dynamics behavior of this system. Last, through application examples and numerical simulations, we confirm the validity and feasibility of the theoretical results, and find that the control strategy is also applicable to eco-epidemiological systems.

This paper introduces an analog integrated fractional order type-2 fuzzy PID control system. Current approaches frequently depend on energy-intensive embedded digital systems, consuming substantial energy levels ranging from a few μW to mW. To address this limitation we propose a fully analog design offering insights into the potential of analog circuits for powerefficient robust control in complex and uncertain environments. It consists of Gaussian function, min/max, Operational transcoductance amplifier circuits and Resistor-Capacitor networks for the implementation of the fractional-order components. Crafted for operation under a reduced voltage supply (0.6 V), the controller attains minimal power usage (861.8 nW), facilitating uninterrupted, extended-term functioning. Post-layout simulation results confirm the proper operation of the proposed design. The proposed system is designed and simulated using the Cadence IC Suite in a TSMC 90 nm CMOS process.

This paper applies fractional calculus to a practical example in fluid mechanics, illustrating its impact beyond traditional integer order calculus. We focus on the classic problem of a rigid body rotating within a uniformly rotating container, which generates a liquid vortex from an undisturbed initial state. Our aim is to compare the time evolutions of the physical system in fractional and integer order models by examining the torque transmission from the rotating body to the surrounding liquid. This is achieved through closed-form, time-developing solutions expressed in terms of Mittag–Leffler and Bessel functions. Analysis reveals that the rotational velocity and, consequently, the vortex structure of the liquid are influenced by three distinct time zones that differ between integer and noninteger models. Anomalous diffusion, favoring noninteger fractions, dominates at early times but gradually gives way to the integer derivative model behavior as time progresses through a transitional regime. Our derived vortex formula clearly demonstrates how the liquid vortex is regulated in time for each considered fractional model.

Silicon neurons are bioinspired circuits with the capability to reproduce the modulation through pulse-frequency observed in real neurons. They are of particular interest in closed-loop schemes to encode the control signal into pulses. This paper proposes the analog realization of neuromorphic silicon neurons with fractional dynamics. In particular, the fractional-order (FO) operator is introduced into classical neurons with the intention of reproducing the adaptation that has been observed experimentally in real neurons, which is the variation in the firing frequency even when considering a constant or periodic incoming stimulus. For validation purposes, simulations using a field-programmable analog array (FPAA) are performed to verify the behavior of the circuits.

The degree of irregularity and complexity of the pore structure are comprehensively reflected in the fractal dimension. The porosity of coal was determined by its fractal dimension, where a larger dimension indicates a lower porosity. Fractal theory and the Frenkel–Halsey–Hill (FHH) model were applied to explore the variation rules of concentration on functional groups and pore structure in this study. Combined with infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and low-temperature nitrogen adsorption, a starch-polymerized aluminum sulfate composite fracturing fluid was prepared, which plays an important role in methane adsorption and permeability of coal samples. The test results showed that, compared with the original coal, the pore volume and specific surface area of each group of coal samples were reduced, the average pore diameter was initially enlarged and then declined, and fractal dimension D1 dropped by 5.4% to 15.4%, while fractal dimension D2 gained 1.2% to 7.9%. Moreover, the nitrogen adsorption of each group of coal samples was obviously lower than the original coal, and the concentration of starch-polymerized aluminum sulfate solution existed at a critical optimal concentration for the modification of the coal samples, and the nitrogen adsorption reached a minimum value of 0.6814 cm3/g at a concentration of 10%. The novel composite solution prepared by the combination of starch and flocculant in this paper enhanced the permeability of the coal seam, which is of great significance in improving the efficiency of coalbed methane mining.

In this article, we propose a new fractional-order delay-coupled FitzHugh–Nagumo neural model. Taking advantage of delay as a bifurcation parameter, we explore the stability and bifurcation of the formulated fractional-order delay-coupled FitzHugh–Nagumo neural model. A delay-independent stability and bifurcation conditions for the fractional-order delay-coupled FitzHugh–Nagumo neural model is acquired. By designing a proper PDp controller, we can efficaciously control the stability domain and the time of emergence of the bifurcation phenomenon of the considered fractional delay-coupled FitzHugh–Nagumo neural model. By exploiting a reasonable hybrid controller, we can successfully adjust the stability domain and the bifurcation onset time of the involved fractional delay-coupled FitzHugh–Nagumo neural model. This study shows that when the delay crosses a critical value, a Hopf bifurcation will arise. When we adjust the control parameter, we can find other critical values to enlarge or narrow the stability domain of the fractional-order delay-coupled FitzHugh–Nagumo neural model. In order to check the correctness of the acquired outcomes of this article, we present some simulation outcomes via Matlab 7.0 software. The obtained theoretical fruits in this article have momentous theoretical significance in running and constructing networks.

This research utilizes the innovative fractional-order Archimedean spiral moth–flame optimization (FO-AMFO) technique to address the issues of the optimal reactive power dispatch (ORPD) problem. The formulated fitness function aims to minimize power losses and determine the ideal flow of reactive power for the IEEE 30- and 57-bus test systems. The extensive functions of the fractional evolutionary computing strategy are utilized to address the minimization problem of ORPD. This involves determining the control variables, such as VAR compensators, bus voltages, and the tap setting of the transformers. The effective incorporation of reactive compensation devices into traditional power grids has greatly reduced power losses; however, it has resulted in an increase in the complexity of optimization problems. A comparison of the findings indicates that swarming fractional intelligence using FO-AMFO surpassed the state-of-the-art competitors in terms of minimizing power losses.
