Fractional behaviors modeling - Analysis and application of several unusual tools

After presenting the limitations of fractional derivative models in dynamic long-memory behaviours, in the particular case of power-type behaviours, the book then introduces new notion of fractional derivatives have appeared. Models such as Volterra linear integro-differential equations, distributed time delay models, space dependent coefficients diffusion equations and non-linear state space description are thus studied.The series is devoted to the publication of high-level monographs which cover progresses in fractional calculus research in mathematics and applications in physics, mechanics, engineering and biology etc. Methodological aspects e.g., theory, modeling and computational methods are presented from mathematical point of view, and emphases are placed in computer simulation, analysis, design and control of application-oriented issues in various scientific disciplines. It is designed for mathematicians, and researchers using fractional calculus as a tool in the field of physics, mechanics, engineering and biology. Contributions which are interdisciplinary and which stimulate further research at the crossroads of sciences and engineering are particularly welcomed.
