Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

The fractional dynamic is a field of study in mathematics and physics that investigates the behavior of objects and systems by using differentiations of fractional orders. Due to its widespread applications in science and technology, research within the fractional dynamical systems has led to new developments that have attracted the attention of a considerable audience of professionals such as mathematicians, physicists, applied researchers and practitioners. Unlike integer-order models, fractional-order models have the potential to capture nonlocal relations in time and space with power law memory kernels. This means that they provide more realistic and adequate descriptions for many real-world phenomena. In spite of the tremendous amount of published results focused on fractional differential equations and dynamical systems, we believe that many challenging open problems remain. Indeed, the theory and application of these systems are still very active areas of research.

The main objective of this Special Issue is to fill a void in the literature by making relevant information available for an important area of research. The Special Issue on “Fractional Dynamical Systems: Applications and Theoretical Results” provides an international forum for researchers to contribute with original research focusing on the latest achievements in the theory and application of fractional dynamical systems.

The instability of the underwater environment and underwater communication brings great challenges to the coordination and cooperation of the multi-Autonomous Underwater Vehicle (AUV). In this paper, a multi-AUV dynamic maneuver countermeasure algorithm is proposed based on the interval information game theory and fractional-order Differential Evolution (DE), in order to highlight the features of the underwater countermeasure. Firstly, an advantage function comprising the situation and energy efficiency advantages is proposed on account of the multi-AUV maneuver strategies. Then, the payoff matrix with interval information is established and the payment interval ranking is achieved based on relative entropy. Subsequently, the maneuver countermeasure model is presented along with the Nash equilibrium condition satisfying the interval information game. The fractional-order DE algorithm is applied for solving the established problem to determine the optimal strategy. Finally, the superiority of the proposed multi-AUV maneuver countermeasure algorithm is verified through an example. Full article

The main purpose of this paper is to investigate the existence and Ulam-Hyers stability (U-Hs) of solutions of a nonlinear neutral stochastic fractional differential system. We prove the existence and uniqueness of solutions to the proposed system by using fixed point theorems and the Banach contraction principle. Also, by using fundamental schemes of fractional calculus, we study the (U-Hs) to the solutions of our suggested system. Besides, we study an example, best describing our main result. Full article

Many problems in practical engineering can be simplified as the cantilever beam model, which is generally studied by theoretical analysis, experiment, and numerical simulation. This paper discusses the local activity of the nonlinear nonplanar motion of a cantilever beam at the equilibrium point. Firstly, the equilibrium point of the model and the Jacobian matrix have been calculated. The stability of the characteristic root corresponding to the characteristic polynomial has been analyzed. Secondly, the corresponding complexity function of the model at the equilibrium point has been given. Then, the local activity region of the model at the equilibrium point can be obtained by using the theory of the local activity. Based on the actual engineering research background, the damping coefficient is generally taken as 0 < c < 1. The cantilever beam model is the local activity at the equilibrium point only if the parameters of the model satisfy a certain condition. In the numerical simulation, it is found that when the proper parameters are selected in the local activity region, the cantilever beam can exhibit different types of chaotic motion. The local activity theory provides a theoretical basis for the parameter selection of the chaotic motion in the cantilever beam. Full article

In this paper, we propose a modified fractional diffusive SEAIR epidemic model with a nonlinear incidence rate. A constructed model of fractional partial differential equations (PDEs) is more general than the corresponding model of fractional ordinary differential equations (ODEs). The Caputo fractional derivative is considered. Linear stability analysis of the disease-free equilibrium state of the epidemic model (ODEs) is presented by employing Routh–Hurwitz stability criteria. In order to solve this model, a fractional numerical scheme is proposed. The proposed scheme can be used to find conditions for obtaining positive solutions for diffusive epidemic models. The stability of the scheme is given, and convergence conditions are found for the system of the linearized diffusive fractional epidemic model. In addition to this, the deficiencies of accuracy and consistency in the nonstandard finite difference method are also underlined by comparing the results with the standard fractional scheme and the MATLAB built-in solver pdepe. The proposed scheme shows an advantage over the fractional nonstandard finite difference method in terms of accuracy. In addition, numerical results are supplied to evaluate the proposed scheme’s performance. Full article

In this manuscript, we study the unified integrals recently defined by Rahman et al. and present some new double generalized weighted type fractional integral inequalities associated with increasing, positive, monotone and measurable function F. Also, we establish some new double-weighted inequalities, which are particular cases of the main result and are represented by corollaries. These inequalities are further refinement of all other inequalities associated with increasing, positive, monotone and measurable function existing in literature. The existing inequalities associated with increasing, positive, monotone and measurable function are also restored by applying specific conditions as given in Remarks. Many other types of fractional integral inequalities can be obtained by applying certain conditions on F and Ψ given in the literature. Full article

This paper is devoted to generalizing the standard system of Navier boundary value problems to a fractional system of coupled sequential Navier boundary value problems by using terms of the Caputo derivatives. In other words, for the first time, we design a multi-term fractional coupled system of Navier equations under the fractional boundary conditions. The existence theory is studied regarding solutions of the given coupled sequential Navier boundary problems via the Krasnoselskii’s fixed-point theorem on two nonlinear operators. Moreover, the Banach contraction principle is applied to investigate the uniqueness of solution. We then focus on the Hyers–Ulam-type stability of its solution. Furthermore, the approximate solutions of the proposed coupled fractional sequential Navier system are obtained via the generalized differential transform method. Lastly, the results of this research are supported by giving simulated examples. Full article

In this paper, the existence, uniqueness and stability of solutions to a boundary value problem of nonlinear FDEs of variable order are established. To do this, we first investigate some aspects of variable order operators of Hadamard type. Then, with the help of the generalized intervals and piecewise constant functions, we convert the variable order Hadamard FBVP to an equivalent standard Hadamard BVP of the fractional constant order. Further, two fixed point theorems due to Schauder and Banach are used and, finally, the Ulam–Hyers–Rassias stability of the given variable order Hadamard FBVP is examined. These results are supported with the aid of a comprehensive example. Full article

We construct a subclass of Copson’s integral inequality in this article. In order to achieve this goal, we attempt to use the Steklov operator for generalizing different inequalities of the Copson type relevant to the situations ρ>1 as well as ρ<1. We demonstrate the inequalities with the guidance of basic comparison, Holder’s inequality, and the integration by parts approach. Moreover, some new variations of Hardy’s integral inequality are also presented with the utilization of Steklov operator. We also formulate many remarks and two examples to show the novelty and authenticity of our results. Full article
