Marachkov type stability results for functional differential equations.
In this paper we consider a dynamic model for flow induced vibration of pipelines. We study the questions of existence and uniqueness of solutions of the system. Considering the flow rate as the control variable, we present three different necessary conditions of optimality. The last one with state constraint involves Differential Inclusions. The paper is concluded with an algorithm for computing the optimal controls.
We present and compare two simple models of immune system and cancer cell interactions. The first model reflects simple cancer disease progression and serves as our "control" case. The second describes the progression of a cancer disease in the case of a patient infected with the HIV-1 virus.
We consider a mathematical model of nutrient-autotroph-herbivore interaction with nutrient recycling from both autotroph and herbivore. Local and global stability criteria of the model are studied in terms of system parameters. Next we incorporate the time required for recycling of nutrient from herbivore as a constant discrete time delay. The resulting DDE model is analyzed regarding stability and bifurcation aspects. Finally, we assume the recycling delay in the oscillatory form to model the...
In this paper, we consider a system of nonlinear delay-differential equations (DDEs) which models the dynamics of the interaction between chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML), imatinib, and the anti-leukemia immune response. Because of the chaotic nature of the dynamics and the sparse nature of experimental data, we look for ways to use computation to analyze the model without employing direct numerical simulation. In particular, we develop several tools using Lyapunov-Krasovskii analysis that allow...
We present new explicit criteria for exponential stability of general linear neutral time-varying differential systems. Particularly, our results give extensions of the well-known stability criteria reported in [3,11] to linear neutral time-varying differential systems with distributed delays.
A qualitative method is explored for analyzing the stability of systems. The approach is a generalization of the celebrated Lyapunov method. Whereas classically, the Lyapunov method is based on the simple comparison theorem, deriving suitable candidate Lyapunov functions remains mostly an art. As a result, in the realm of delay equations, such Lyapunov methods can be quite conservative. The generalization is here in using the comparison theorem directly with a different scalar equation with known...
This paper is concerned with a class of Nicholson's blowflies models with multiple time-varying delays, which is defined on the nonnegative function space. Under appropriate conditions, we establish some criteria to ensure that all solutions of this model converge globally exponentially to a positive almost periodic solution. Moreover, we give an example with numerical simulations to illustrate our main results.
This paper addresses the stability study for nonlinear neutral differential equations. Thanks to a new technique based on the fixed point theory, we find some new sufficient conditions ensuring the global asymptotic stability of the solution. In this work we extend and improve some related results presented in recent works of literature. Two examples are exhibited to show the effectiveness and advantage of the results proved.
