TY - JOUR TI - A new general fractional-order derivataive with Rabotnov fractional-exponential kernel applied to model the anomalous heat transfer AU - Yang Xiao-Jun AU - Abdel-Aty Mahmoud AU - Cattani Carlo JN - Thermal Science PY - 2019 VL - 23 IS - 3 SP - 1677 EP - 1681 PT - Article AB - In this paper, we consider a general fractional-order derivataive of the Liouville-Caputo type with the non-singular kernel of the Rabotnov fractional-exponential function for the first time. A new general fractional-order derivataive heat transfer model is discussed in detail. The general fractional-order derivataive formula is a new mathematical tool proposed to model the anomalous behaviors in complex and power-law phenomena.
