Oscillation Results For Even Order Trinomial Functional Differential Equations With Damping, Ercan Tunç Dec 2014

Oscillation Results For Even Order Trinomial Functional Differential Equations With Damping, Ercan Tunç

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

In this paper, we investigate the oscillatory behavior of solutions to a certain class of nonlinear functional differential equations of the even order with damping. By using the integral averaging technique and Riccati type transformations, we prove four new theorems on the subject. Several examples are also considered to illustrate the main results.


Long Wavelength Analysis Of A Model For The Geographic Spread Of A Disease, Layachi Hadji Dec 2014

Long Wavelength Analysis Of A Model For The Geographic Spread Of A Disease, Layachi Hadji

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

We investigate the temporal and spatial evolution of the spread of an infectious disease by performing a long-wavelength analysis of a classical model for the geographic spread of a rabies epidemic in a population of foxes subject to idealized boundary conditions. We consider twodimensional and three-dimensional landscapes consisting of an infinite horizontal strip bounded by two walls a finite distance apart and a horizontal region bounded above and below by horizontal walls, respectively. A nonlinear partial differential evolution Equation for the leading order of infectives is derived. The Equation captures the space and time variations of the spread of the …


Scaling Group Analysis On Mhd Free Convective Heat And Mass Transfer Over A Stretching Surface With Suction / Injection, Heat Source/Sink Considering Viscous Dissipation And Chemical Reaction Effects, Hunegnaw Dessie, Naikoti Kishan Dec 2014

Scaling Group Analysis On Mhd Free Convective Heat And Mass Transfer Over A Stretching Surface With Suction / Injection, Heat Source/Sink Considering Viscous Dissipation And Chemical Reaction Effects, Hunegnaw Dessie, Naikoti Kishan

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

This paper concerns with scaling group analysis on MHD free convective heat and mass transfer over stretching surface considering effects of thermal-diffusion and diffusion-thermo with suction /injection, heat source/sink and chemical reaction by taking into account viscous dissipation. Scaling group transformations are used to convert the partial differential equations of governing equations into ordinary differential equation and are solved numerically by Keller Box Method. Numerical results obtained for different parameters are drawn graphically and their effects on velocity, temperature and concentration profiles are discussed and shown graphically. Skin-friction coefficient, Nusselt number and Sherwood number are presented in table. It is …


Existence Of Mild Solutions For Semilinear Impulsive Functional Mixed Integro-Differential Equations With Nonlocal Conditions, Kamalendra Kumar, Rakesh Kumar Dec 2014

Existence Of Mild Solutions For Semilinear Impulsive Functional Mixed Integro-Differential Equations With Nonlocal Conditions, Kamalendra Kumar, Rakesh Kumar

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

In this paper, we prove the existence, uniqueness and continuous dependence of initial data on mild solutions of first order semilinear functional impulsive mixed integro-differential equations with nonlocal condition in general Banach spaces. The results are obtained by using the semigroup theory and Banach contraction theorem.


An Optimal Harvesting Strategy Of A Three Species Syn-Ecosystem With Commensalism And Stochasticity, M. N. Srinivas, A. Sabarmathi, K. S. Reddy, M. A. S. Srinivas Dec 2014

An Optimal Harvesting Strategy Of A Three Species Syn-Ecosystem With Commensalism And Stochasticity, M. N. Srinivas, A. Sabarmathi, K. S. Reddy, M. A. S. Srinivas

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

In this paper we have studied the stability of three typical species syn-ecosystem. The system comprises of one commensal S1 and two hosts S2 and S3 . Both S2 and S2 benefit S1 without getting themselves affected either positively or adversely. Further S2 is a commensal of S3 and S3 is a host of both S1 and S2. Limited resources have been considered for all the three species in this case. The model equations of the system constitute a set of three first order non-linear ordinary differential equations. …


Modelling The Dynamics Of A Renewable Resource Under Harvesting With Taxation As A Control Variable, B. Dubey, Atasi Patra, S. K. Sahani Dec 2014

Modelling The Dynamics Of A Renewable Resource Under Harvesting With Taxation As A Control Variable, B. Dubey, Atasi Patra, S. K. Sahani

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

The present paper describes a model of resource biomass and population with a non-linear catch rate function on resource biomass. The harvesting effort is assumed to be a dynamical variable. Tax on per unit harvested resource biomass is used as a tool to control exploitation of the resource. Pontryagin’s Maximum Principle is used to find the optimal control to maintain the resource biomass and population at an optimal level. A numerical simulation is also carried out to support the analytical results.


A New Adjustment Of Laplace Transform For Fractional Bloch Equation In Nmr Flow, Sunil Kumar, Devendra Kumar, U. S. Mahabaleshwar Jun 2014

A New Adjustment Of Laplace Transform For Fractional Bloch Equation In Nmr Flow, Sunil Kumar, Devendra Kumar, U. S. Mahabaleshwar

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

This work purpose suggest a new analytical technique called the fractional homotopy analysis transform method (FHATM) for solving time fractional Bloch NMR (nuclear magnetic resonance) flow equations, which are a set of macroscopic equations that are used for modeling nuclear magnetization as a function of time. The true beauty of this article is the coupling of the homotopy analysis method and the Laplace transform method for systems of fractional differential equations. The solutions obtained by the proposed method indicate that the approach is easy to implement and computationally very attractive.


Modelling The Flow Of Aqueous Humor In Schlemm’S Canal In The Eye, Ram Avtar, Swati Srivastava, Rashmi Srivastava Jun 2014

Modelling The Flow Of Aqueous Humor In Schlemm’S Canal In The Eye, Ram Avtar, Swati Srivastava, Rashmi Srivastava

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

A simple mathematical model for the transient flow of aqueous humor in the canal of Schlemm is developed to investigate the acceleration effects of a sudden elevation in the intraocular pressure on the flow characteristics of the aqueous humor in the canal. The model treats a canal segment as a tube of elliptic cross-section. Exact analytical solution to the model is obtained using separation of variables method. The effects of some important model parameters on the maximum and minimum shear stresses exerted on the Schlemm’s canal epithelial cells (wall) by flowing aqueous humor are investigated for the steady-state flow.

Dynamics Of Phytoplankton, Zooplankton And Fishery Resource Model, B. Dubey, Atasi Patra, R. K. Upadhyay

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

In this paper, a new mathematical model has been proposed and analyzed to study the interaction of phytoplankton- zooplankton-fish population in an aquatic environment with Holloing’s types II, III and IV functional responses. It is assumed that the growth rate of phytoplankton depends upon the constant level of nutrient and the fish population is harvested according to CPUE (catch per unit effort) hypothesis. Biological and bionomical equilibrium of the system has been investigated. Using Pontryagin’s Maximum Principal, the optimal harvesting policy is discussed. Chaotic nature and bifurcation analysis of the model system for a control parameter have been observed through …
