Mathematics Subject Classification: 26A33, 30B10, 33B15, 44A10, 47N70, 94C05We suggest a fractional differential equation that combines the simple
harmonic oscillations of an LC circuit with the discharging of an RC circuit.
A series solution is obtained for the suggested fractional differential
equation. When the fractional order α = 0, we get the solution for the RC
circuit, and when α = 1, we get the solution for the LC circuit. For arbitrary
α we get a general solution which shows how the...
This paper deals with a reaction-diffusion system modeling a free boundary problem of the predator-prey type with prey-taxis over a one-dimensional habitat. The free boundary represents the spreading front of the predator species. The global existence and uniqueness of classical solutions to this system are established by the contraction mapping principle. With an eye on the biological interpretations, numerical simulations are provided which give a real insight into the behavior of the free boundary...
We focus on the free boundary problems for a Leslie-Gower predator-prey model with radial symmetry in a higher dimensional environment that is initially well populated by the prey. This free boundary problem is used to describe the spreading of a new introduced predator. We first establish that a spreading-vanishing dichotomy holds for this model. Namely, the predator either successfully spreads to the entire space as goes to infinity and survives in the new environment, or it fails to establish...
This paper is devoted to the formulation and solution of a free boundary problem for the Poisson equation in the plane. The object is to seek a domain and a function defined in satisfying the given differential equation together with both Dirichlet and Neumann type data on the boundary of . The Neumann data are given in a manner which permits reformulation of the problem as a variational inequality. Under suitable hypotheses about the given data, it is shown that there exists a unique solution...
We study a two-grid scheme fully discrete in time and
space for solving the Navier-Stokes system. In the first step, the
fully non-linear problem is discretized in space on a coarse grid
with mesh-size H and time step k. In the second step, the
problem is discretized in space on a fine grid with mesh-size h
and the same time step, and linearized around the velocity uH
computed in the first step. The two-grid strategy is motivated by
the fact that under suitable assumptions, the contribution of
uH...
