In this paper the fractional differential equation for the mass-spring-damper system in terms of the fractional time derivatives of the Caputo type is considered. In order to be consistent with the physical equation, a new parameter is introduced. This parameter char­acterizes the existence of fractional components in the system. A relation between the fractional order time derivative and the new parameter is found. Different particular cases are analyzed

<p>Fractional calculus is an important branch of mathematical analysis, which is specialized in the study of the mathematical properties and applications of arbitrary order integral and differential, and is the extension of the traditional integral calculus. At present, fractional integral and derivative operators are mainly used to calculate fractional calculus, among which the most famous ones are Riemann-Liouville fractional integral and derivative, Caputo fractional derivative, Grümwald-Letnikov fractional integral and derivative, etc. At present, the numerical algorithm of finite difference scheme is mainly used to solve the approximate solution of the equation, to solve the fractional differential equation. Through the finite difference of time fractional order or space fractional order, the approximate solution of the equation is obtained, and the stability, convergence and compatibility of the scheme are checked, and the convergence order and estimation error are calculated. At present, the theory and method of nonlinear fractional differential equation are widely used in the study of various intermediate processes and critical phenomena in finance, physics and mechanics, which can better fit some natural physical processes and dynamic system processes.</p>

This paper proposes a new type of fractional differential equation model, named time fractional differential equation model, in which noise term is included in the time derivative order. The new model is applied to anomalous relaxation and diffusion processes suffering noisy field. The analysis and numerical simulation results show that our model can well describes the feature of these processes. We also find that the scale parameter and the frequency of the noise play a crucial role in the behaviors of these systems. At the end, we recognize some potential applications of this new model.


In this study, we have successfully found some travelling wave solutions of the variant Boussinesq system and fractional system of two-dimensional Burgers' equations of fractional order by using the -expansion method. These exact solutions contain hyperbolic, trigonometric and rational function solutions. The fractional complex transform is generally used to convert a partial fractional differential equation (FDEs) with modified Riemann-Liouville derivative into ordinary differential equation. We showed that the considered transform and method are very reliable, efficient and powerful in solving wide classes of other nonlinear fractional order equations and systems.

Using conformable fractional calculus on time scales, we first introduce fractional Sobolev spaces on time scales, characterize them, and define weak conformable fractional derivatives. Second, we prove the equivalence of some norms in the introduced spaces and derive their completeness, reflexivity, uniform convexity, and compactness of some imbeddings, which can be regarded as a novelty item. Then, as an application, we present a recent approach via variational methods and critical point theory to obtain the existence of solutions for ap-Laplacian conformable fractional differential equation boundary value problem on time scaleT:  Tα(Tαup-2Tα(u))(t)=∇F(σ(t),u(σ(t))),Δ-a.e.  t∈a,bTκ2,u(a)-u(b)=0,Tα(u)(a)-Tα(u)(b)=0,whereTα(u)(t)denotes the conformable fractional derivative ofuof orderαatt,σis the forward jump operator,a,b∈T,  0<a<b,  p>1, andF:[0,T]T×RN→R. By establishing a proper variational setting, we obtain three existence results. Finally, we present two examples to illustrate the feasibility and effectiveness of the existence results.

<abstract><p>In this paper, we derive the explicit analytical solution of incommensurate fractional differential equation systems with fractional order $ 1 &lt; \alpha, \beta &lt; 2 $. The derivation is extended from a recently published paper by Huseynov et al. in <sup>[<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b1">1</xref>]</sup>, which is limited for incommensurate fractional order $ 0 &lt; \alpha, \beta &lt; 1 $. The incommensurate fractional differential equation systems were first converted to Volterra integral equations. Then, the Mittag-Leffler function and Picard's successive approximations were used to obtain the analytical solution of incommensurate fractional order systems with $ 1 &lt; \alpha, \beta &lt; 2 $. The solution will be simplified via some combinatorial concepts and bivariate Mittag-Leffler function. Some special cases will be discussed, while some examples will be given at the end of this paper.</p></abstract>
