Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Recently, many new models have been developed to address real-world problems that represent serious threats to the future of humankind. These result from modeling events observed in various fields of science, such as physics, chemistry, mechanics, electricity, biology, economy, mathematical applications, and control theory. Moreover, research conducted on fractional ordinary or partial differential equations and other relevant topics relating to integer order has attracted the attention of experts from all over the world.

The focus of this Special Issue will be on reviewing new developments based on fractional differentiation and integration with respect to both theoretical and numerical aspects.

This Special Issue invites experts to share new ideas on theories, applications, numerical and analytical methods, and simulations of fractional calculus and fractional differential equations, as well as integer order. Topics of interest are defined below, and submissions relating to relevant fields are welcome.

  • New analytical and numerical methods to solve partial differential equations.
  • Computational methods for fractional differential equations.
  • The analysis, modeling, and control of phenomena in the following areas:
    • Electrical engineering;
    • Fluid dynamics and thermal engineering;
    • Mechanics;
    • Biology;
    • Physics;
    • Applied sciences;
    • Computer science.
  • Engineering problems.
  • Deterministic and stochastic fractional order models.

This study uses a conformable derivative of order β to investigate a fractional Whitham–Broer–Kaup (FWBK) model. This model has significant uses in several scientific domains, such as plasma physics and nonlinear optics. The enhanced modified Sardar sub-equation EMSSE approach is applied to achieve precise analytical solutions, demonstrating its effectiveness in resolving complex wave photons. Bright, solitary, trigonometric, dark, and plane waves are among the various wave dynamics that may be effectively and precisely determined using the FWBK model. Furthermore, the study explores the chaotic behaviour of both perturbed and unperturbed systems, revealing illumination on their dynamic characteristics. By demonstrating its validity in examining wave propagation in nonlinear fractional systems, the effectiveness and reliability of the suggested method in fractional modelling are confirmed through thorough investigation.

In this article, we focused on the fractional order modeling, simulations and neural networking to observe the correlation between severity of infection in HIV-AIDS patients and the role of treatments and control. The model is structured with eight classes and a modified Atangana–Baleanu derivative in Caputo’s sense. The model has several interlinking parameters which show the rates of transmission between classes. We assumed natural death and death on the disease severity in patients. The model was analyzed mathematically as well as computationally. In the mathematical aspects, R0 was plotted for different cases which play a vital role in the infection spread in the population. The model was passed through qualitative analysis for the existence of solutions and stability results. A computational scheme is developed for the model and is applied for the numerical results to analyze the intricate dynamics of the infection. It has been observed that there is a good resemblance in the results for the correlation between the hospitalization, vaccination and recovery rate of the patients. These are reaffirmed with the neural networking tools for the regression, probability, clustering, mean square error and fitting data. Full article

In the present paper, regular spacelike spatial Minkowski Pythagorean hodograph (MPH) curves are characterized with rational rotation-minimizing frames (RRMFs). We define an Euler–Rodrigues frame (ERF) for MPH curves and by means of this concept, we reach the definition of MPH curves of type (n,m). Expressing the conditions provided by these curves in the form of a Minkowski–Hopf map that we define; it is aimed to establish a connection with the Lorentz force that occurs during the process of computer numerical control (CNC)-type sinker electronic discharge machines (EDMs). This approach is reinforced by split quaternion polynomials. We give conditions satisfied by MPH curves of low degree to be type (n,m) and construct illustrative examples. In five-axis CNC machines, rotation-minimizing frames are used for tool path planning, and in this way, unnecessary rotations in the tool frame are prevented and tool orientation is provided. Since we obtain MPH curves with RRMF using the ERF, finally we define the Fermi–Walker derivative and parallelism along MPH curves with respect to the ERF and give applications. Full article
