Mathematical model and optimal control of flow induced vibration of pipelines

N.U. Ahmed (1999)

Discussiones Mathematicae, Differential Inclusions, Control and Optimization

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.

Model of AIDS-related tumour with time delay

Marek Bodnar, Urszula Foryś, Zuzanna Szymańska (2009)

Applicationes Mathematicae

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.

Modeling the role of constant and time varying recycling delay on an ecological food chain

Banibrata Mukhopadhyay, Rakhi Bhattacharyya (2010)

Applications of Mathematics

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...

New Computational Tools for Modeling Chronic Myelogenous Leukemia

M. M. Peet, P. S. Kim, S.-I. Niculescu, D. Levy (2009)

Mathematical Modelling of Natural Phenomena

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...

New qualitative methods for stability of delay systems

Erik I. Verriest (2001)

Kybernetika

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...

New results on global exponential stability of almost periodic solutions for a delayed Nicholson blowflies model

Bingwen Liu (2015)

Annales Polonici Mathematici

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.

New sufficient conditions for global asymptotic stability of a kind of nonlinear neutral differential equations

Mimia Benhadri, Tomás Caraballo (2022)

Mathematica Bohemica

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.
