This mathematical tool will be used here to model, analyze and control various dynamical systems, such as the Van der Pol oscillator, legged robots, electrical systems, digital circuit synthesis, evolutionary computing, redundant robots and financial modelling. Their effectiveness and utility will be demonstrated.engFractional calculusControlModellingDynamicsconference object
