In this paper, we develop fractal calculus by defining improper fractal integrals and their convergence and divergence conditions with related tests and by providing examples. Using fractal calculus that provides a new mathematical model, we investigate the effect of fractal time on the evolution of the physical system, for example, electrical circuits. In these physical models, we change the dimension of the fractal time; as a result, the order of the fractal derivative changes; therefore, the corresponding solutions also change. We obtain several analytical solutions that are non-differentiable in the sense of ordinary calculus by means of the local fractal Laplace transformation. In addition, we perform a comparative analysis by solving the governing fractal equations in the electrical circuits and using their smooth solutions, and we also show that when α=1, we get the same results as in the standard version.
Fractal calculus generalizes ordinary calculus, offering a way to differentiate otherwise non-differentiable domains and phenomena. This paper discusses the equilibrium and non-equilibrium statistical mechanics involving fractal structure, as well as fractal temperature in the partition function.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
