A detailed analysis for the fundamental solution of fractional vibration equation
In this paper, we investigate the solution of the fractional vibration equation, where the damping term is characterized by means of the Caputo fractional derivative with the order α satisfying 0 < α < 1 or 1 < α < 2. Detailed analysis for the fundamental solution y(t) is carried out through the Laplace transform and its complex inversion integral formula. We conclude that y(t) is ultimately positive, and ultimately decreases monotonically and approaches zero for the case of 0 < α...
