Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Fractional-order calculus or fractional-order systems have been developed in physics, biomedical signal processing, neuromorphic applications, electronic circuits, medicine and electrical engineering, and so on. Fractional-order circuits are also used in modeling the electrical properties of biological materials. Fractional-order systems and circuits have some characteristics which are hard to realize using integer-order systems and circuits, especially for multiple delay models. Time delays are ubiquitous not only in many practical integer-order systems and circuits but also in fractional-order systems and circuits. Time delays will affect the stability and synchronization of the dynamic systems and are naturally considered in fractional-order systems and circuits, no matter theory or applications. Recently, many research results about fractional-order calculus, fractional-order systems, and fractional-order circuits both with time delay and without time delay emerge in the literature. This Special Issue aims to address the current status of research in this area.
Topics that are invited for submission include (but are not limited to) the following:
- Fractional-order circuit theory;
- Fractional-order circuit models in physics and electrochemistry;
- Applications of fractional-order circuit models for biology and biomedicine;
- Fractional-order systems: control theory and applications;
- Fractional-order oscillator theory and realizations;
- Fractional-order systems and implementation.

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.
