Download or read book Numerical Methods for Fractional Differentiation written by Kolade M. Owolabi and published by Springer. This book was released on 2019-10-24 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book discusses numerical methods for solving partial differential and integral equations, as well as ordinary differential and integral equations, involving fractional differential and integral operators. Differential and integral operators presented in the book include those with exponential decay law, known as Caputo–Fabrizio differential and integral operators, those with power law, known as Riemann–Liouville fractional operators, and those for the generalized Mittag–Leffler function, known as the Atangana–Baleanu fractional operators. The book reviews existing numerical schemes associated with fractional operators including those with power law, while also highlighting new trends in numerical schemes for recently introduced differential and integral operators. In addition, the initial chapters address useful properties of each differential and integral fractional operator. Methods discussed in the book are subsequently used to solved problems arising in many fields of science, technology, and engineering, including epidemiology, chaos, solitons, fractals, diffusion, groundwater, and fluid mechanics. Given its scope, the book offers a valuable resource for graduate students of mathematics and engineering, and researchers in virtually all fields of science, technology, and engineering, as well as an excellent addition to libraries.

Download or read book Fractional Calculus written by Dumitru Baleanu and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2016-09-15 with total page 476 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book will give readers the possibility of finding very important mathematical tools for working with fractional models and solving fractional differential equations, such as a generalization of Stirling numbers in the framework of fractional calculus and a set of efficient numerical methods. Moreover, we will introduce some applied topics, in particular fractional variational methods which are used in physics, engineering or economics. We will also discuss the relationship between semi-Markov continuous-time random walks and the space-time fractional diffusion equation, which generalizes the usual theory relating random walks to the diffusion equation. These methods can be applied in finance, to model tick-by-tick (log)-price fluctuations, in insurance theory, to study ruin, as well as in macroeconomics as prototypical growth models. All these topics are complementary to what is dealt with in existing books on fractional calculus and its applications. This book will keep in mind the trade-off between full mathematical rigor and the needs of readers coming from different applied areas of science and engineering. In particular, the numerical methods listed in the book are presented in a readily accessible way that immediately allows the readers to implement them on a computer in a programming language of their choice. The second edition of the book has been expanded and now includes a discussion of additional, newly developed numerical methods for fractional calculus and a chapter on the application of fractional calculus for modeling processes in the life sciences.

Download or read book Theory and Numerical Approximations of Fractional Integrals and Derivatives written by Changpin Li and published by SIAM. This book was released on 2019-10-31 with total page 326 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Due to its ubiquity across a variety of fields in science and engineering, fractional calculus has gained momentum in industry and academia. While a number of books and papers introduce either fractional calculus or numerical approximations, no current literature provides a comprehensive collection of both topics. This monograph introduces fundamental information on fractional calculus, provides a detailed treatment of existing numerical approximations, and presents an inclusive review of fractional calculus in terms of theory and numerical methods and systematically examines almost all existing numerical approximations for fractional integrals and derivatives. The authors consider the relationship between the fractional Laplacian and the Riesz derivative, a key component absent from other related texts, and highlight recent developments, including their own research and results. The core audience spans several fractional communities, including those interested in fractional partial differential equations, the fractional Laplacian, and applied and computational mathematics. Advanced undergraduate and graduate students will find the material suitable as a primary or supplementary resource for their studies.

Book excerpt: The subject of fractional calculus and its applications (that is, convolution-type pseudo-differential operators including integrals and derivatives of any arbitrary real or complex order) has gained considerable popularity and importance during the past three decades or so, mainly due to its applications in diverse fields of science and engineering. These operators have been used to model problems with anomalous dynamics, however, they also are an effective tool as filters and controllers, and they can be applied to write complicated functions in terms of fractional integrals or derivatives of elementary functions, and so on. This book will give readers the possibility of finding very important mathematical tools for working with fractional models and solving fractional differential equations, such as a generalization of Stirling numbers in the framework of fractional calculus and a set of efficient numerical methods.

Download or read book Computational Methods In The Fractional Calculus Of Variations written by Ricardo Almeida and published by World Scientific Publishing Company. This book was released on 2015-03-19 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book fills a gap in the literature by introducing numerical techniques to solve problems of fractional calculus of variations (FCV). In most cases, finding the analytic solution to such problems is extremely difficult or even impossible, and numerical methods need to be used.The authors are well-known researchers in the area of FCV and the book contains some of their recent results, serving as a companion volume to Introduction to the Fractional Calculus of Variations by A B Malinowska and D F M Torres, where analytical methods are presented to solve FCV problems. After some preliminaries on the subject, different techniques are presented in detail with numerous examples to help the reader to better understand the methods. The techniques presented may be used not only to deal with FCV problems but also in other contexts of fractional calculus, such as fractional differential equations and fractional optimal control. It is suitable as an advanced book for graduate students in mathematics, physics and engineering, as well as for researchers interested in fractional calculus.
