Necessary and sufficient conditions for the fractional calculus of variations with Caputo derivatives

open access: yes, 2010
We prove optimality conditions for different variational functionals containing left and right Caputo fractional derivatives. A sufficient condition of minimization under an appropriate convexity assumption is given.

The Impacts of Health and Environmental Information Nudges on Meat Choices: Where Does Goat Meat Fit?

open access: yesAgribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Amidst a recent surge in US goat meat imports to meet growing demand, this study contributes to the meat demand literature by examining consumer preferences for goat meat, a relatively healthy and environmentally friendly alternative to other popular meats.

U.S. Consumer Preferences for Cage‐Free Eggs and Hen Housing Policies

open access: yesAgribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Farm animal welfare (FAW) continues to be a divisive issue in the egg industry. In the United States, 10 states and most major retailers have implemented policies or voluntary pledges to transition to 100% cage‐free egg sales. We use best‐worst scaling and discrete choice experiments to evaluate U.S.

Preliminary Appraisal of a Correlation Between Glaciations and Large Igneous Provinces Over the Past 720 Million Years

open access: yesGeophysical Monograph Series, Page 169-190., 2021

Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact

An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.

The Numerical Solution of Fractional Black-Scholes-Schrodinger Equation Using the RBFs Method

open access: yesAdvances in Mathematical Physics, 2020
In this paper, radial basis functions (RBFs) method was used to solve a fractional Black-Scholes-Schrodinger equation in an option pricing of financial problems. The RBFs method is applied in discretizing a spatial derivative process.

Theoretical and numerical aspects of the Malaria transmission model with piecewise technique

open access: yesAIMS Mathematics, 2023
In this paper, we apply piecewise derivatives with both singular and non-singular kernels to investigate a malaria model. The singular kernel is the Caputo derivative, while the non-singular kernel is the Atangana-Baleanu operator in Caputo's sense (ABC).

Swedish Consumers' Willingness‐to‐Pay for Plant‐Based Proteins in Pasta Sauce: Preferences and Policy Scenarios

open access: yesAgribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper explores Swedish consumers' protein preferences by estimating the willingness‐to‐pay (WTP) for minced meat and plant‐based proteins in pasta sauce from an in‐store experiment (n = 206) and an online discrete choice experiment (n = 517). On average, the WTP was highest for minced meat.

Existence and Uniqueness Result for Fuzzy Fractional Order Goursat Partial Differential Equations

open access: yesFractal and Fractional
In this manuscript, we discuss fractional fuzzy Goursat problems with Caputo’s gH-differentiability. The second-order mixed derivative term in Goursat problems and two types of Caputo’s gH-differentiability pose challenges to dealing with Goursat ...

Applications of the Neutrosophic Poisson Distribution for Bi-Univalent Functions Involving the Modified Caputo’s Derivative Operator

open access: yesFractal and Fractional, 2022
This paper establishes the upper bounds for the second and third coefficients of holomorphic and bi-univalent functions in a family which involves Bazilevic functions and μ-pseudo-starlike functions under a new operator, joining the neutrosophic Poisson ...

Monotonicity of functions and sign changes of their Caputo derivatives

open access: yes, 2015
It is well known that a continuously differentiable function is monotone in an interval $[a,b]$ if and only if its first derivative does not change its sign there.
