Resonance study of an elementary fractional transfer function of the third kind

This work is devoted to the stability and resonance study of the elementary fractional transfer function of the third kind. Some basic properties of this transfer function which is written in the canonical form and characterized by a non commensurate order, a pseudo-damping factor and a natural frequency, are presented. A resonance and stability condition is established numerically in terms of the non commensurate order and the pseudo-damping factor. Many frequency-domain curves are given to determine graphically the pseudo-damping factor and the non commensurate order for a desired normalized gain and normalized resonant frequency. Illustrative examples are presented to show the correctness and the usefulness of these curves.
