Academic Press Fractional Order Systems: An Overview of Mathematics, Design, and Applications for Engineers (Emerging Methodologies and Applications in Modelling, Identification and Control)

Fractional Order Systems: An Overview of Mathematics, Design, and Applications for Engineers introduces applications from a design perspective, helping readers plan and design their own applications. The book includes the different techniques employed to design fractional-order systems/devices comprehensively and straightforwardly. Furthermore,  mathematics is available in the literature on how to solve fractional-order calculus for system applications. This book introduces the mathematics that has been employed explicitly for fractional-order systems. It will prove an excellent material for students and scholars who want to quickly understand the field of fractional-order systems and contribute to its different domains and applications. Fractional-order systems are believed to play an essential role in our day-to-day activities. Therefore, several researchers around the globe endeavor to work in the different domains of fractional-order systems. The efforts include developing the mathematics to solve fractional-order calculus/systems and to achieve the feasible designs for various applications of fractional-order systems. Review Focuses on the design of fractional-order systems for different applications From the Back Cover Fractional-order systems are believed to play an essential role in our day-to-day activities. Therefore, several researchers around the globe endeavor to work in the different domains of fractional-order systems. The efforts include developing the mathematics to solve fractional-order calculus/systems and to achieve the feasible designs for various applications of fractional-order systems. The applications vary from biomedical engineering-control systems-robotics-bio impedance modeling-chaotic systems-signal processing etc. Given the importance of the fractional-order systems, it is timely to present Fractional Order Systems: Mathematics, Design, and Applications for Engineers. The book introduces applications from the design perspective so that the reader, besides getting know-how about a particular application, also gets ready to design these applications. Also, includes the different techniques employed to design fractional-order systems/devices comprehensively and straightforwardly. Furthermore, a lot of mathematics is available in the literature for solving the fractional-order calculus for system application. However, a small portion is employed in the design of fractional-order systems. This book introduces the mathematics that has been employed explicitly for fractional-order systems. It will prove an excellent material for students and scholars who wants to quickly understand the field of fractional-order systems and contribute to its different domains and applications.
