A discrete time method to the first variation of fractional order variational functionals

Abstract: Abstract:The fact that the first variation of a variational functional must vanish along an extremizer is the base of most effective solution schemes to solve problems of the calculus of variations. We generalize the method to variational problems involving fractional order derivatives. First order splines are used as variations, for which fractional derivatives are known. The Grünwald-Letnikov definition of fractional derivative is used, because of its intrinsic discrete nature that leads to straightforward a… Show more

“…On the other hand, very well performed research has been conducted on the numerical side of FODEs. In this regard plenty of research articles addressing numerical and qualitative analysis have been presented in the past few years (for instance see [11][12][13][14][15][16] and the references therein). Here we remark that stability analysis is also an important aspect of qualitative analysis.…”

“…Therefore, it is imperative to develop appropriate numerical methods for such dynamic systems. The generalized ELE, condition of transversality and the FOVPs are discussed in [51][52][53][54]. The subject of FOVPs generates more reliable models of physical phenomena and has several applications in engineering and physics [55][56][57] such as automatic control, porous media, mechanical problems involved with dissipative systems, Brownian motions, vibrating string and so on.…”

“…The development and analysis of fractional calculus began in recent decades, when the fractional differential equation emerged as a tool for the description of phenomena in nature. Fractional differential equations (Giona and Roman, 1992;Kirchner et al, 2000;Magin, 2006;Li and Deng, 2007;Garrappa and Popolizio, 2011;Alipour et al, 2012;Baleanu et al, 2012;Machado et al, 2013;Rostamy et al, 2013) are used to model many phenomena in several fields (Pooseh et al, 2013;Dehghan et al, 2014;Lazo and Torres, 2014;Pinto and Carvalho, 2015;Raja and Chaudhary, 2015;Xu et al, 2015). Numerical techniques are widely used by scientists and engineers to solve fractional PDEs.…”
