This paper presents a general procedure to obtain Butterworth filter specifications in the fractional-order domain where an infinite number of relationships could be obtained due to the extra independent fractional-order parameters which increase the filter degrees-of-freedom. The necessary and sufficient condition for achieving fractional-order Butterworth filter with a specific cutoff frequency

Recently, Memristive elements such as memristor, memcapacitor and meminductors have become very attractive components in many applications, due to its unique behavior which can not be obtained using the other conventional elements. This paper discusses the analytical analysis of two memcapacitors connected in series and in parallel taking the effect of mismatch in mobility factor and polarity of

This paper presents a generalized post-processing technique for enhancing the pseudorandomness of digital chaotic oscillators through a nonlinear XOR-based operation with rotation and feedback. The technique allows full utilization of the chaotic output as pseudorandom number generators and improves throughput without a significant area penalty. Digital design of a third-order chaotic system with

This paper introduces the modified single input Op-Amps memristor based oscillator. The oscillator is realized with ideal, LM741 and current feedback (AD844) Op-Amps where memristors replace resistors. The effect of memristor on the oscillation frequency and the oscillation condition that are totally independent is studied. This helped in studying the whole operation regime of the memristor. The

Memristive oscillators are a novel topic in nonlinear circuit theory, where the behavior of the reactive elements is emulated by the memristor. This paper presents symmetric and asymmetric memristive two-gate relaxation oscillators. First, the analysis of the two series memristors is introduced to study the effect of changing their polarities, as well as the mobility factor to be used in the two

This paper introduces a dynamic model to adequately describe an Upflow Anaerobic Sludge Blanket (UASB) reactor. Some available models of a UASB reactor are discussed in order to modify their drawbacks and propose a new improved model with less complexity and more reliability. The developed model is a combination of two recent models introduced in Sweden. According to this model, a UASB rector is

Recently, the applications of memristors have spread into many fields and especially in the circuit theory. Many models have been proposed for the HP-memristor based on the window functions. In this paper, we introduce a complete mathematical analysis of the controlled reactance-less oscillator for two different window functions of Joglekar's model (linear and nonlinear dopant drift) to discuss

This work introduces Maxwell's equations in their time domain fractional derivatives form. Some special cases of fractional order wave equations are shown. Studying the effect of fractional-order derivatives with respect to time on the generalized analysis and fundamentals of the rectangular waveguide is the main focus of this work. The effect of the fractional-order parameters on the waveguide

This paper is a step forward to generalize the fundamentals of the conventional RC and RL circuits in fractional-order sense. The effect of fractional orders is the key factor for extra freedom, more flexibility, and novelty. The conditions for RC and RL circuits to act as pure imaginary impedances are derived, which are unrealizable in the conventional case. In addition, the sensitivity analyses
