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.

Caputo-Type Modification of the Erdélyi-Kober Fractional Derivative [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
2000 Math. Subject Classification: 26A33; 33E12, 33E30, 44A15, 45J05The Caputo fractional derivative is one of the most used definitions of a fractional derivative along with the Riemann-Liouville and the Grünwald- Letnikov ones.

Towards Fractional Gradient Elasticity

open access: yes, 2013
An extension of gradient elasticity through the inclusion of spatial derivatives of fractional order to describe power-law type of non-locality is discussed. Two phenomenological possibilities are explored.

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.

Uniqueness for weak solutions of parabolic equations with a fractional time derivative

open access: yes, 2018
We prove uniqueness for weak solutions to abstract parabolic equations with the fractional Marchaud or Caputo time derivative. We consider weak solutions in time for divergence form equations when the fractional derivative is transferred to the test ...

Output feedback robust stabilization of distributed‐order systems

open access: yesAsian Journal of Control, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper addresses the challenge of robust fast stabilization for a class of dynamical systems characterized by slow and ultra‐slow dynamics. The system model is approximated using a distributed‐order derivative of the measured output, which captures the influence of the control input, system dynamics, and external disturbances.

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.
