Quote:Fractional calculus is one of the most important divisions of theoretical and applied mathematics. This new book presents a wide variety of interesting technologies and practices used in fractional calculus, providing detailed insight into recent developments and the latest research in the field of science, engineering, etc., using fractional calculus.
The result of the teaching experiences of the editors and authors to engineering and science students, the volume discusses fractional calculus via generalized functions and integral transforms of pathway type; Laplace transformation of fractional integrals and derivatives; estimating the order of derivation in a fractional differential equation; a new class of integro-differential equations with non-singular differential operators; various uses of the Caputo approach; a gingerbread-man discrete system; etc. The various applications of fractional calculus are shown with examples such as for creating and/or solving epidemic models, alcoholism models, model for divorce dynamics, and more.
Giving a rigorous and thorough analysis of various aspects of fractional calculus, this volume helps scientific readers as well as researchers working in the area of fractional calculus to establish the key steps followed in the research methodology and concept development.
