Fractional Diffusion Equations: Numerical Analysis, Modeling and Application, 2nd Edition

Dear Colleagues,

Differential equations with fractional order derivatives have important applications in physics, chemical and control systems, signal processing and so on. The fractional diffusion model is a fundamental mathematical model for the evolution of probability densities. Analytical methods for solving such equations are scarcely effective, so we must resort to numerical methods.

This Special Issue will be devoted to collecting recent results on the theory, numerical methods and application of fractional diffusion equations and other fractional differential equations. Topics that are invited for submission include (but are not limited to):

• Theory results and numerical methods for fractional diffusion equations;
• Application of fractional diffusion equations;
• Numerical methods for fractional oscillating differential equations;
• Approximation methods for nonsmoth functions;
• Numerical methods for singular integral equations;
• Models for fractional differential equations;
• Theory and numerical methods for fractional order system identification;
• Application of fractional order system identification.

Manuscript Submission Information

Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.

Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Fractal and Fractional is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.

Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2700 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
