Abstract

A fractional-order nonlinear dynamical model of couple has been introduced. Upper bounds are obtained for a fractional-order nonlinear dynamical model. Also different from other models, a model with the order 2 α is discussed. We are expecting an acceleration in feelings; that is why we increase the order of the derivative between 1 < 2α ≤ 2. Stability analysis of the fractional-order nonlinear dynamical model of involving two persons is studied using the fractional Routh-Hurwitz criteria. By using stability analysis on fractional-order system, we obtain sufficient condition on the parameters for the locally asymptotic stability of equilibrium points. Finally, numerical simulations are presented to verify the obtained results.
