In this article, free convection flow of an Oldroyd-B fluid (OBF) through a vertical rectangular channel in the presence of heat generation or absorption subject to generalized boundary conditions is studied. The fractionalized mathematical model is established by Caputo time-fractional derivative through mechanical laws (generalized shear stress constitutive equation and generalized Fourier’s law). Closed form solutions for the velocity and temperature profiles are obtained via Laplace coupled with sine-Fourier transforms and have been embedded with regards to the special functions, namely, the generalized G-functions of Lorenzo and Hartley. Solutions of the known results from recently published work (Nehad et al. Chin. J. Phy., 65, (2020) 367–376) are recovered as limiting cases. Finally, the effects of fractional and various physical parameters are graphically underlined. Furthermore, a comparison between Oldroyd-B, Maxwell and viscous fluids (fractional and ordinary) is depicted. It is found that, for short time, ordinary fluids have greater velocity as compared to the fractional fluids.

The mappings for some special functions on Cantor sets are investigated. Meanwhile, we apply the local fractional Fourier series, Fourier transforms, and Laplace transforms to solve three local fractional differential equations, and the corresponding nondifferentiable solutions were presented.

AbstractIn Fractional Calculus (FC), the Laplace and the Fourier integral transforms are traditionally employed for solving different problems. In this paper, we demonstrate the role of the Mellin integral transform in FC. We note that the Laplace integral transform, the sin- and cos-Fourier transforms, and the FC operators can all be represented as Mellin convolution type integral transforms. Moreover, the special functions of FC are all particular cases of the Fox H-function that is defined as an inverse Mellin transform of a quotient of some products of the Gamma functions.In this paper, several known and some new applications of the Mellin integral transform to different problems in FC are exemplarily presented. The Mellin integral transform is employed to derive the inversion formulas for the FC operators and to evaluate some FC related integrals and in particular, the Laplace transforms and the sin- and cos-Fourier transforms of some special functions of FC. We show how to use the Mellin integral transform to prove the Post-Widder formula (and to obtain its new modi-fication), to derive some new Leibniz type rules for the FC operators, and to get new completely monotone functions from the known ones.

Hydrogen-type atomic orbitals (HTOs) are an important type of exponential-type orbital. These orbitals have some mathematical properties and they are used usually in the theoretical atomic and molecular investigations as special functions to figure out analytical expressions. The Fourier transform method is a great way to convert basis functions into the momentum space, because their Fourier transforms are easier to use in mathematical calculations. In this paper, we obtain new and useful mathematical representations for the Fourier transform of HTOs related with Gegenbauer polynomials and hypergeometric functions, by using recurrence relations of Laguerre polynomials, Rayleigh expansion and some properties of normalized HTOs.

The common trigonometric functions admit generalizations to any higher dimension, the symmetric, antisymmetric and alternating ones. In this paper, we restrict ourselves to three dimensional generalization only, focusing on alternating case in detail. Many specific properties of this new class of special functions useful in applications are studied. Such are the orthogonalities, both the continuous one and the discrete one on the 3D lattice of any density, corresponding discrete and continuous Fourier transforms, and others. Rapidly increasing precision of the interpolation with increasing density of the 3<em>D</em> lattice is shown in an example.

Cryo-electron microscopy has been developed to the point where one can image thin protein crystals to 3.5 Å resolution. In our study of the crotoxin complex crystal, we can confirm this structural resolution from optical diffractograms of the low dose images. To retrieve high resolution phases from images, we have to include as many unit cells as possible in order to detect the weak signals in the Fourier transforms of the image. Hayward and Stroud proposed to superimpose multiple image areas by combining phase probability distribution functions for each reflection. The reliability of their phase determination was evaluated in terms of a crystallographic “figure of merit”. Grant and co-workers used a different procedure to enhance the signals from multiple image areas by vector summation of the complex structure factors in reciprocal space.
