Volume Filling Effect in Modelling Chemotaxis

D. Wrzosek (2010)

Mathematical Modelling of Natural Phenomena

The oriented movement of biological cells or organisms in response to a chemical gradient is called chemotaxis. The most interesting situation related to self-organization phenomenon takes place when the cells detect and response to a chemical which is secreted by themselves. Since pioneering works of Patlak (1953) and Keller and Segel (1970) many particularized models have been proposed to describe the aggregation phase of this process. Most of...

Wirtinger inequality and nonlinear differential systems

Jaroslav Jaroš (2013)

Archivum Mathematicum

Picone identity for a class of nonlinear differential equations is established and various qualitative results (such as Wirtinger-type inequality and the existence of zeros of first components of solutions) are obtained with the help of this new formula.

Zero Dissipative DIRKN Pairs of Order 5(4) for Solving Special Second Order IVPs

S. O. Imoni, M. N. O. Ikhile (2014)

Acta Universitatis Palackianae Olomucensis. Facultas Rerum Naturalium. Mathematica

For initial value problem (IVPs) in ordinary second order differential equations of the special form y ' ' = f x , y possessing oscillating solutions, diagonally implicit Runge–Kutta–Nystrom (DIRKN) formula-pairs of orders 5(4) in 5-stages are derived in this paper. The method is zero dissipative, thus it possesses a non-empty interval of periodicity. Some numerical results are presented to show the applicability of the new method compared with existing Runge–Kutta (RK) method applied to the problem reduced to...
