We study a quasilinear parabolic-parabolic chemotaxis system with nonlinear logistic source, under homogeneous Neumann boundary conditions in a smooth bounded domain. By establishing proper a priori estimates we prove that, with both the diffusion function and the chemotaxis sensitivity function being positive, the corresponding initial boundary value problem admits a unique global classical solution which is uniformly bounded. The result of this paper is a generalization of that of Cao (2014).
This paper deals with parabolic-elliptic chemotaxis systems with the sensitivity function and the growth term under homogeneous Neumann boundary conditions in a smooth bounded domain. Here it is assumed that
A growing body of literature testifies to the importance of quantitative reasoning skills
in the 21st-century biology curriculum, and to the learning benefits associated with
active pedagogies. The process of modeling a biological system provides an approach that
integrates mathematical skills and higher-order thinking with existing course content
knowledge. We describe a general strategy for teaching model-building in an introductory
biology course,...
An increasing number of known RNA 3D structures contributes to the recognition of various RNA families and identification of their features. These tasks are based on an analysis of RNA conformations conducted at different levels of detail. On the other hand, the knowledge of native nucleotide conformations is crucial for structure prediction and understanding of RNA folding. However, this knowledge is stored in structural databases in a rather distributed form. Therefore, only automated methods...
The bioelectric current dipole model is important both theoretically and computationally in the study of electrical activity in the brain and stomach due to the resemblance of the shape of these two organs to an ellipsoid. To calculate the magnetic field due to a dipole in an ellipsoid, one must evaluate truncated series expansions involving ellipsoidal harmonics , which are products of Lamé functions. In this article, we extend a strictly analytic model (G. Dassios and F. Kariotou, J. Math....
Un hecho delictivo ha sido cometido por una o más personas. Para descubrir el número de presuntos delincuentes, se determina el perfil genético de la evidencia forense encontrada en el lugar del delito, mediante el estudio de marcadores de tipo STR. En el presente artículo se desarrollan diversos algoritmos. En el primero se considera la probabilidad de que n personas elegidas aleatoriamente de la población de referencia contengan un perfil genético compatible, en el segundo se calcula la evidencia...
Cancer has recently overtaken heart disease as the world’s biggest killer. Cancer is
initiated by gene mutations that result in local proliferation of abnormal cells and their
migration to other parts of the human body, a process called metastasis. The metastasized
cancer cells then interfere with the normal functions of the body, eventually leading to
death. There are two hundred types of cancer, classified by their point of origin. Most of
them...
Canonical non-symmetrical correspondence analysis is developed as an alternative method for constrained ordination, relating external information (e.g., environmental variables) with ecological data, considering species abundance as dependant on sites. Ordination axes are restricted to be linear combinations of the environmental variables, based on the information of the most abundant species. This extension and its associated unconstrained ordination method are terms of a global model that permits...
In this work, we introduce a new software created to study hematopoiesis at the cell
population level with the individually based approach. It can be used as an interface between theoretical
works on population dynamics and experimental observations. We show that this software
can be useful to study some features of normal hematopoiesis as well as some blood diseases such
as myelogenous leukemia. It is also possible to simulate cell communication and the formation of
cell colonies in the bone marrow.

We derive a constitutive law for the myocardium from the description of both the geometrical arrangement of cardiomyocytes and their individual mechanical behaviour. We model a set of cardiomyocytes by a quasiperiodic discrete lattice of elastic bars interacting by means of moments. We work in a large displacement framework and we use a discrete homogenization technique. The macroscopic constitutive law is obtained through the resolution of a nonlinear self-equilibrum system of the discrete lattice...
