On the global dynamics of the cancer AIDS-related mathematical model

Konstantin E. Starkov, Corina Plata-Ante (2014)

Kybernetika

In this paper we examine some features of the global dynamics of the four-dimensional system created by Lou, Ruggeri and Ma in 2007 which describes the behavior of the AIDS-related cancer dynamic model in vivo. We give upper and lower ultimate bounds for concentrations of cell populations and the free HIV-1 involved in this model. We show for this dynamics that there is a positively invariant polytope and we find a few surfaces containing omega-limit sets for positive half trajectories in the positive...

Pattern Formation of Competing Microorganisms in Sediments

Y. Schmitz, M. Baurmann, B. Engelen, U. Feudel (2010)

Mathematical Modelling of Natural Phenomena

We present a three species model describing the degradation of substrate by two competing populations of microorganisms in a marine sediment. Considering diffusion to be the main transport process, we obtain a reaction diffusion system (RDS) which we study in terms of spontaneous pattern formation. We find that the conditions for patterns to evolve are likely to be fulfilled in the sediment. Additionally, we present simulations that are consistent with experimental data from the literature. We...

Reliable numerical modelling of malaria propagation

István Faragó, Miklós Emil Mincsovics, Rahele Mosleh (2018)

Applications of Mathematics

We investigate biological processes, particularly the propagation of malaria. Both the continuous and the numerical models on some fixed mesh should preserve the basic qualitative properties of the original phenomenon. Our main goal is to give the conditions for the discrete (numerical) models of the malaria phenomena under which they possess some given qualitative property, namely, to be between zero and one. The conditions which guarantee this requirement are related to the time-discretization...

Similarity solutions for high frequency excitation of liquid metal in an antisymmetric magnetic field

Bernard Brighi, Jean-David Hoernel (2006)

Banach Center Publications

The aim of this paper is to investigate, as precisely as possible, a boundary value problem involving a third order ordinary differential equation. Its solutions are the similarity solutions of a problem arising in the study of the phenomenon of high frequency excitation of liquid metal systems in an antisymmetric magnetic field within the framework of boundary layer approximation.

Spread Pattern Formation of H5N1-Avian Influenza and its Implications for Control Strategies

R. Liu, V. R. S. K. Duvvuri, J. Wu (2008)

Mathematical Modelling of Natural Phenomena

Mechanisms contributing to the spread of avian influenza seem to be well identified, but how their interplay led to the current worldwide spread pattern of H5N1 influenza is still unknown due to the lack of effective global surveillance and relevant data. Here we develop some deterministic models based on the transmission cycle and modes of H5N1 and focusing on the interaction among poultry, wild birds and environment. Some of the model parameters are obtained from existing literatures, and others...

Stability and optimal harvesting of a prey-predator model with stage structure for predator

Tapan Kumar Kar (2005)

Applicationes Mathematicae

The dynamics of a prey-predator system, where predator has two stages, a juvenile stage and a mature stage, is modelled by a system of three ordinary differential equations. Stability and permanence of the system are discussed. Furthermore, we consider the harvesting of prey species and obtain the maximum sustainable yield and the optimal harvesting policy.
