Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
In the last few decades, fractional calculus has frequently been chosen by researchers as an alternative method for modeling and controlling dynamical systems. The fractional-order approach could provide a more precise analysis of a robotic system than its integer counterpart. This Special Issue is devoted to advancements in the modeling and control of robotic systems utilizing fractional calculus.
This Special Issue aims to introduce new concepts into the field of fractional-order modeling and control and provide a platform for researchers to report these concepts. This Special Issue welcomes contributions from fellow researchers, academics, industry experts, and engineering students working on a similar topic.
The following are examples of possible areas of interest, but they are not exhaustive:
- Fractional-order control;
- Developments in the tuning of fractional controllers applied to robotics;
- Fractional control strategies for different robotic systems;
- Fractional calculus applied to UAVs;
- Adaptive fractional-order control of robotic systems;
- Developments of optimized control algorithms for modeling fractional-order control;
- Modeling of fractional-order behavior of robotic systems;
- Fractional calculus applied to underactuated robotic systems;
- Developments of optimized algorithms for fractional modeling.

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.
