Determination of order in linear fractional differential equations

Abstract: In this article, the order of some classes of fractional linear differential equations is determined, based on asymptotic behavior of the solution as time tends to infinity. The order of fractional derivative has been proved to be of great importance in an accurately appropriate simulation of the system under study. Specifically, by representing the asymptotic expansion of the solution, it could be obviously demonstrated that the decay rate of the solution is in influenced by the order of fractional differentiation. The numerical investigation is conducted into the proven formulas.
