A novel implementation of a fractional-order parallel resonator, capable of operating in a ±0.5 V power supply voltage environment, is presented in this work. Compared to the corresponding already published structures, it offers the benefit of reduced circuit complexity, due to the utilization of very simple voltage-mode 1st-order filter sections, leading also to reduction in the dc power

In this paper, complete analysis and design for fractional-order oscillators based on double Op-Amp are presented. The fractional order parameters enrich the oscillator design by offering the extra degree of freedom which adds more flexibility to the design. Two oscillators with double op-Amp are introduced. The oscillation frequency, condition, phase difference and the characteristic equation for

This paper introduces two FPGA based design approaches of the fractional order integrator and differentiator using Grünwald Letnikov (GL) definition where fixed window and linear approximation approaches are considered. The main advantage of the linear approximation method is that it reduces the huge memory of the fractional order systems. One of the top applications of fractional calculus is the

Exploring the use of fractional calculus is essential for it to be used properly in various applications. Implementing the fractional operator Dα in FPGA is an important research topic in fractional calculus; in the literature, only a few FPGA implementations have been proposed due to the memory dependence of the fractional order systems. In this paper, FPGA implementations of fractional order

Solar energy turns into a promising supply of electricity, so structures of Photo-voltaic (PV) regularly use a maximum power point tracking (MPPT) way to deliver the highest probable power to the load continuously. This paper presents the methodology of PI controller tuning of PV employing Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO). The aim is to obtain the maximum power and maintain its value using the PI

The quest for high performance supercapacitors from the energy-power point of view is commonly addressed from the constituting electrode materials and/or the electrolyte. Carbon-based double-layer capacitors are known for their high power density, whereas pseudocapacitors which use transition metal oxides/nitrides/sulfides or conductive polymers are known for their high energy density. In this

This paper is concerned with the generalization of continuous-time 3rd order low-pass filters to the fractional order domain. Three fractional-order capacitors of the same order α are to be considered in the process of filter design. A complete mathematical analysis of the 3rd order fractional low-pass filter is given with stability constraints taken into consideration. Finally, several low-pass

In this work, we first propose a versatile digital memristor emulator that exhibits either continuous or discrete behaviors, similar to valence change memories (VCM

Bio-impedance measurement has been used as an indicator for specific physical and chemical changes in food products, fruits and vegetables, cancer detection and other applications.

Advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) using chemically prepared and green synthesized nano zero-valent iron (nZVI) has proved to be effective in removing organic contaminants. The green synthesized nano iron (GT-nZVI) was prepared by using extracted black tea reducing agent. The prepared nZVI particles were characterized using X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and
