Linear proportional-integral (PI) controllers are an attractive choice for controlling the speed of induction machines because of their simplicity and ease of implementation. Fractional-order PI (FO-PI) controllers, however, perform better than PI controllers because of their nonlinear nature and the underlying iso-damping property of fractional-order operators. In this work, an FO-PI controller based on the proposed first-order plus dead-time induction motor model and integer-order (IO) controllers, such as Ziegler-Nichols PI, Cohen-Coon PI, and a PI controller tuned via trial-and-error method, is designed. Simulation and experimental investigation on an indirect field-oriented induction motor drive system proves that the proposed FO-PI controller has better speed tracking, lesser settling time, better disturbance rejection, and lower speed tracking error compared with linear IO-PI controllers. Our experimental study also validates that the FO-PI controller maximizes the torque per ampere output of the induction machine and can effectively control the motor at low speed, in field-weakening regions, and under detuned conditions.

The present research is focused on the study of plane harmonic waves in a two-dimensional orthotropic magneto-thermoelastic media with fractional order theory of generalized thermoelasticity in the light of two-temperature and rotation due to time harmonic sources. Here, we studied three types of waves namely quasi-longitudinal (QL), quasi-transverse (QTS) and quasi thermal (QT) waves. The variations in the wave properties such as phase velocity, attenuation coefficient and specific loss have been noticed with respect to frequency for the reflected waves. Further the value of amplitude ratios, energy ratios and penetration depth are computed numerically with respect to angle of incidence. The numerical simulated results are presented graphically to show the effect of fractional parameter based on its conductivity (0<α<1 for weak, α=1 for normal, 1<α≤2 for strong conductivity) on all the components.

A class of systems of Caputo fractional differential equations with integral boundary conditions is considered. A numerical method based on a finite difference scheme on a uniform mesh is proposed. Supremum norm is used to derive an error estimate which is of order κ − 1, 1 < κ < 2. Numerical examples are given which validate our theoretical results.

In the present investigation reflection and transmission of plane waves at an elastic half space and piezothermoelastic solid half space with fractional order derivative is discussed. The piezothermoelastic solid half space is assumed to have 6 mm type symmetry and assumed to be loaded with an elastic half space. It is found that the amplitude ratios of various reflected and refracted waves are functions of angle of incidence, frequency of incident wave and are influenced by the piezothermoelastic properties of media. The expressions of amplitude ratios and energy ratios are obtained in closed form. The energy ratios are computed numerically using amplitude ratios for a particular model of graphite and Cadmium Selenide (CdSe). The variations of energy ratios with angle of incidence are shown graphically. The conservation of energy across the interface is verified. Some cases of interest are also deduced from the present investigation.

A treatment based on the algebraic operations on fuzzy numbers is used to replace the fuzzy problem into an equivalent crisp one. The finite difference technique is used to replace the continuous boundary value problem (BVP) of arbitrary order 1<α≤2, with fuzzy boundary parameters into an equivalent crisp (algebraic or differential) system. Three numerical examples with different behaviors are considered to illustrate the treatment of the singular perturbed case with different fractional orders of the BVP (α=1.8, α=1.9) as well as the classical second order (α=2). The calculated fuzzy solutions are compared with the crisp solutions of the singular perturbed BVP using triangular membership function (r-cut representation in parametric form) for different values of the singular perturbed parameter (ε=0.8, ε=0.9, ε=1.0). Results are illustrated graphically for the different values of the included parameters.

The objective of this paper is to study the effect of frequency in a two-dimensional orthotropic thermoelastic rotating solid with fractional order heat transfer in generalized thermoelasticity with two-temperature due to inclined load. As an application the bounding surface is subjected to uniformly and linearly distributed loads (mechanical and thermal source). The problem is solved with the help of Fourier transform. Assuming the disturbances to be harmonically time dependent, the expressions for displacement components, stress components, conductive temperature and temperature change are derived in frequency domain. Numerical inversion technique has been used to determine the results in physical domain. The results are depicted graphically to show the effect of frequency on various components. Some particular cases are also discussed in the present research.

Here in this investigation, a two-dimensional thermoelastic problem of thick circular plate of finite thickness under fractional order theory of thermoelastic diffusion has been considered in frequency domain. The effect of frequency in the axisymmetric thick circular plate has been depicted. The upper and lower surfaces of the thick plate are traction free and subjected to an axisymmetric heat supply. The solution is found by using Hankel transform techniques. The analytical expressions of displacements, stresses and chemical potential, temperature change and mass concentration are computed in transformed domain. Numerical inversion technique has been applied to obtain the results in the physical domain. Numerically simulated results are depicted graphically. The effect frequency has been shown on the various components.

The study of two-dimensional electron systems with extraordinarily low levels of disorder was, for a long time, the exclusive privilege of the epitaxial thin film research community. However, the successful isolation of graphene by mechanical exfoliation has truly disrupted this field. Furthermore, the assembly of heterostructures consisting of several layers of different 2D materials in arbitrary order by exploiting van der Waals forces has been a game-changer in the field of low-dimensional physics. This technique can be generalized to the large class of strictly 2D materials and offers unprecedented parameters to play with in order to tune electronic and other properties. It has led to a paradigm shift in the field of 2D condensed matter physics with bright prospects. In this review article, we discuss three device fabrication techniques towards high mobility devices: suspended structures, dry transfer, and pick-up transfer methods. We also address state-of-the-art device structures, which are fabricated by the van der Waals pick-up transfer method. Finally, we briefly introduce correlated ground states in the fractional quantum Hall regime.

This paper deals with a fractional model reduction for T-S fuzzy systems with time varying delayed states. A contractive coprime factorization of time delayed T-S fuzzy systems is defined and obtained by solving linear matrix inequalities. Using generalized controllability and observability gramians of the contractive coprime factor, a balanced state space realization of the system is derived. The reduced model will be obtained by truncating states in the balanced realization and an upper bound of model approximation error is also presented. In order to demonstrate efficacy of the suggested method, a numerical example is performed.

In this paper, we consider two types of fractional boundary value problems, one of them is an implicit type and the other will be an integro-differential type with nonlocal integral multi-point boundary conditions in the frame of generalized Hilfer fractional derivatives. The existence and uniqueness results are acquired by applying Krasnoselskii's and Banach's fixed point theorems. Some various numerical examples are provided to illustrate and validate our results. Moreover, we get some results in the literature as a special case of our current results.
