Abstract

A fractor is an electronic component similar to a capacitor, but modelled by a fractional derivative. Consequently, while the discharge of a capacitor corresponds to an exponential evolution of voltage with time, the discharge of a fractor can be modelled with the Mittag-Leffler function. In this paper, experimental data of the discharge of a fractor is given, and used to find a model for its dynamic behaviour.
