The ICFDA’18 International Conference on Fractional Differentiation and its Applications is a specialized conference on fractional-order calculus and its applications. It is a generalization of the integer-order ones. The fractional-order differentiation of arbitrary orders takes into account the memory effect of most systems. The order of the derivatives may also be variable, distributed or complex. Recently, fractional-order calculus became a more accurate tool to describe systems in various fields in mathematics, biology, chemistry, medicine, mechanics, electricity, control theory, economics, and signal and image processing.
Topics of interest include, but not limited to:
- Automatic Control - Biology - Electrical Engineering - Electronics - Electromagnetism - Electrochemistry - Finance and Economics - Fractional Dynamics
- Fractional Earth Science - Fractional Filters - Fractional Order Modeling and Control in Biomedical Engineering - Fractional Phase-Locked Loops - Fractional Variational Principles - Fractional Transforms and Their Applications - Fractional Wavelet Applications to the Composite Drug Signals - History of Fractional Calculus - Image Processing - Mathematical methods - Mechanics - Physics - Robotics - Signal Processing - Singularities Analysis and Integral Representations for Fractional Differential Systems - Special Functions Related to Fractional Calculus - Thermal Engineering - Viscoelasticity
Prospective authors are invited to submit a full paper (4-6 pages) describing original work. All submissions should be made electronically through the 2018 conference website. Students are encouraged to participate on the best student paper award contest. Abstracts of accepted papers will be published in the conference proceedings subject to advance registration of at least one of the authors. Additionally, extended versions of selected papers will be published in special issues of International Journals.
