In this paper, a new design method for fractional order model predictive control (FO-MPC) is introduced. The proposed FO-MPC is synthesized for the class of linear time invariant system and applied for the control of an automatic voltage regulator (AVR). The main contribution is to use a fractional order system as prediction model, whereas the plant model is considered as an integer order one. The fractional order model is implemented using the singularity function approach. A comparative study is given with the classical MPC scheme. Numerical simulation results on the controlled AVR performances show the efficiency and the superiority of the fractional order MPC.

Abstract This paper presents the design and implementation of a Switched Fractional Order Model Reference Adaptive Controller (SFOMRAC) for an Automatic Voltage Regulator (AVR). The fractional orders, adaptive gains and switching times of the controller adaptive laws are tuned offline, using Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO). The functional to be optimized contains not only parameters of the AVR response but also the control energy. The obtained controllers are compared to non switched Integer Order Model Reference Adaptive Controller (IOMRAC) and non switched Fractional Order Model Reference Adaptive Controller (FOMRAC) proposed previously for this process, showing that the SFOMRAC can improve both, the system response and the control energy used.

In this paper, a new four-dimensional chaotic flow is proposed. The system has a cyclic symmetry in its structure and shows a complicated, chaotic attractor. The dynamical properties of the system are investigated. The system shows multistability in an interval of its parameter. Fractional order model of the proposed system is discussed in various fractional orders. Bifurcation analysis of the fractional order system shows that it has a kind of multistability like the integer order system, which is a very rare phenomenon. Circuit realization of the proposed system is also carried out to show that it is usable for engineering applications.

We propose a fractional-order model of the interaction within two-prey and one-predator system. We prove the existence and the uniqueness of the solutions of this model. We investigate in detail the local asymptotic stability of the equilibrium solutions of this model. Also, we illustrate the analytical results by some numerical simulations. Finally, we give an example of an equilibrium solution that is centre for the integer order system, while it is locally asymptotically stable for its fractional-order counterpart.

<abstract><p>This paper investigates a fractional-order mathematical model of predator-prey interaction in the ecology considering the fear of the prey, which is generated in addition by competition of two prey species, to the predator that is in cooperation with its species to hunt the preys. At first, we show that the system has non-negative solutions. The existence and uniqueness of the established fractional-order differential equation system were proven using the Lipschitz Criteria. In applying the theory of Routh-Hurwitz Criteria, we determine the stability of the equilibria based on specific conditions. The discretization of the fractional-order system provides us information to show that the system undergoes Neimark-Sacker Bifurcation. In the end, a series of numerical simulations are conducted to verify the theoretical part of the study and authenticate the effect of fear and fractional order on our model's behavior.</p></abstract>

AbstractThis is a continuation (Part II) of our previous paper [19]. In this paper we present a simple method of the fractional-order value calculation of the fractional-order discrete integration element. We assume that the input and output signals are known. The linear time-invariant fractional-order difference equation is reduced to the polynomial in a variable ν with coefficients depending on the measured input and output signal values. One should solve linear algebraic equation or find roots of a polynomial. This simple mathematical problem complicates when the measured output signal contains a noise. Then, the polynomial roots are unsettled because they are very sensitive to coefficients variability. In the paper we show that the discrete integrator fractional-order is very stiff due to the degree of the polynomial. The minimal number of samples guaranteeing the correct order is evaluated. The investigations are supported by a numerical example.
