Argument
the aim is at designing a control system upon the Control Actuation System(CAS) such that it maintains the stability of the CAS under the aerodynamic loads acting on the end effectors, i.e. fins, connected to the rods of the CAS while catching the specified performance requirements by using a fractional PID control

Conclusions
it is obvious that the maximum overshoot diminishes as the values of parameters and  approach unity whereas the settling time and steady state error grow.

8. AFC Workshop Series @ MESALAB @ UCMerced
My doubt
It did not express the efficiency of Fractional control.
Why not employ the optimization of parameters and
