Remarks On The Stability Of Some Size-Structured Population Models Iv: The General Case Of Juveniles And Adults, M. El-Doma Dec 2009

Remarks On The Stability Of Some Size-Structured Population Models Iv: The General Case Of Juveniles And Adults, M. El-Doma

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

The stability of some size-structured population dynamics models is investigated when the population is divided into adults and juveniles. We determine the steady states and study their stability. We also give examples that illustrate the stability results. The results in this paper generalize previous results, for example, see Calsina, et al. (2003), El-Doma (2006), Farkas, et al. (2008), and El-Doma (2008 a).

On Existence And Uniqueness Theorem Concerning Time–Dependent Heat Transfer Model, Naji A. Qatanani, Qasem M. Heeh Dec 2008

On Existence And Uniqueness Theorem Concerning Time–Dependent Heat Transfer Model, Naji A. Qatanani, Qasem M. Heeh

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

In this article we consider a physical model describing time-dependent heat transfer by conduction and radiation. This model contains two conducting and opaque materials which are in contact by radiation through a transparent medium bounded by diffuse-grey surfaces. The aim of this work is to present a reliable framework to prove the existence and the uniqueness of a weak solution for this problem. The existence of the solution can be proved by solving an auxiliary problem by the Galerkin-based approximation method and Moser-type arguments which implies the existence of solution to the original problem. The uniqueness of the solution will …

Parameter Estimation In Nonlinear Coupled Advection-Diffusion Equation, Robert R. Ferdinand Jun 2007

Parameter Estimation In Nonlinear Coupled Advection-Diffusion Equation, Robert R. Ferdinand

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

In this paper a coupled system of two nonlinear advection-diffusion equations is presented. Such systems of equations have been used in mathematical literature to describe the dynamics of contaminant present in groundwater flowing through cracks in a porous rock matrix and getting absorbed into it. An inverse method procedure that approximates infinite-dimensional model parameters is described and convergence results for the parameter approximants are proved. This is finally followed by a computational experiment to compare theoretical and numerical results to verify accuracy of the mathematics analysis presented.

A Partially Discretized Age-Dependent Population Model With An Additional Stucture, Jean Tchuenche Dec 2006

A Partially Discretized Age-Dependent Population Model With An Additional Stucture, Jean Tchuenche

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

A semi-discretization method for solving an age-dependent population dynamics model with an additional structure is proposed. This method, unlike previous ones, considers the partial discretization which reduces the model equation into a first order ordinary differential equation. The latter is then solved explicitly and conditions under which second order accuracy arises are given. While the approach adopted is basically analytical, the main result shows that the sum of errors is bounded. An extension to the non-trivial case where growth depends on the additional parameter leads to a Riccati equation, and the existence and
convergence of solutions are proved.

Oscillations Of Hyperbolic Systems With Functional Arguments, Yutaka Shoukaku, Norio Yoshida Dec 2006

Oscillations Of Hyperbolic Systems With Functional Arguments, Yutaka Shoukaku, Norio Yoshida

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

Hyperbolic systems with functional arguments are studied, and sufficient conditions are obtained for every solution of boundary value problems to be weakly oscillatory (that is, at least one of its components is oscillatory) in a cylindrical domain. Robin-type boundary condition is considered. The approach used is to reduce the multi-dimensional oscillation problems to one-dimensional oscillation problems by using some integral means of solutions.

Remarks On The Stability Of Some Size-Structured Population Models I: Changes In Vital Rates Due To Population Only, Mohammed El-Doma

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

We consider a size-structured population model that has been studied in Calsina et al. (2003). We propose a different approach that provides direct stability results, and we correct a stability result given therein. In addition, we obtain global stability results that have not been given in Calsina et al. (2003).

A Discrete Time Counterpart Of The Black-Scholes Bond Replication Portfolio, Andrzej Korzeniowski Jun 2006

A Discrete Time Counterpart Of The Black-Scholes Bond Replication Portfolio, Andrzej Korzeniowski

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

We construct a discrete time self-financing portfolio comprised of call options short and stock shares long which is riskless and grows at a fixed rate of return. It is also shown that when shorting periods tend to zero then so devised portfolio turns into the Black-Scholes bond replication. Unlike in standard approach the analysis presented here requires neither Ito Calculus nor solving the Heat Equation for option pricing.

Interval - Mtype Oscillation Criteria For Half - Linear Pde With Damping, Robert Marik Jun 2006

Interval - Mtype Oscillation Criteria For Half - Linear Pde With Damping, Robert Marik

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

Using the Riccati substitution we derive new sufficient conditions which ensure that the half-linear partial differential equation with p-Laplacian and damping in the form of Equation (E) in the paper is oscillatory. These criteria, called interval criteria in theory of ODE's, allow to eliminate “bad parts” of the potential function c(x) from our considerations. Some of the results are new even in the case when (E) becomes linear ordinary differential equation.

Analysis Of An Sirs Age-Structured Epidemic Model With Vaccination And Vertical Transmission Of Disease, Mohammed El-Doma Jun 2006

Analysis Of An Sirs Age-Structured Epidemic Model With Vaccination And Vertical Transmission Of Disease, Mohammed El-Doma

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

An SIRS age-structured epidemic model for a vertically as well as horizontally transmitted disease under vaccination is investigated when the fertility, mortality and removal rates depend on age and the force of infection of proportionate mixing assumption type, and vaccination wanes over time. We prove the existence and uniqueness of solution to the model equations, and show that solutions of the model equations depend continuously on the initial age-distributions. Furthermore, we determine the steady states and obtain an explicitly computable threshold condition, in terms of the demographic and epidemiological parameters of the model; we then study the stability of the …
