Birth Mass Is The Key To Understanding The Negative Correlation Between Lifespan And Body Size In Dogs, Rong Fan, Gayla R. Olbricht, Xavior Baker, Chen Hou
Birth Mass Is The Key To Understanding The Negative Correlation Between Lifespan And Body Size In Dogs, Rong Fan, Gayla R. Olbricht, Xavior Baker, Chen Hou

Larger dog breeds live shorter than the smaller ones, opposite of the mass-lifespan relationship observed across mammalian species. Here we use data from 90 dog breeds and a theoretical model based on the first principles of energy conservation and life history tradeoffs to explain the negative correlation between longevity and body size in dogs. We found that the birth/adult mass ratio of dogs scales negatively with adult size, which is different than the weak interspecific scaling in mammals. Using the model, we show that this ratio, as an index of energy required for growth, is the key to understanding why …

Asymptotic Behavior Of Even-Order Damped Differential Equations With P-Laplacian Like Operators And Deviating Arguments, Qingmin Liu, Martin Bohner, Said R. Grace, Tongxing Li

We study the asymptotic properties of the solutions of a class of even-order damped differential equations with p-Laplacian like operators, delayed and advanced arguments. We present new theorems that improve and complement related contributions reported in the literature. Several examples are provided to illustrate the practicability, maneuverability, and efficiency of the results obtained. An open problem is proposed.
An Efficient And Long-Time Accurate Third-Order Algorithm For The Stokes–Darcy System, Wenbin Chen, Max Gunzburger, Dong Sun, Xiaoming Wang
An Efficient And Long-Time Accurate Third-Order Algorithm For The Stokes–Darcy System, Wenbin Chen, Max Gunzburger, Dong Sun, Xiaoming Wang

A third order in time numerical IMEX-type algorithm for the Stokes–Darcy system for flows in fluid saturated karst aquifers is proposed and analyzed. a novel third-order Adams–Moulton scheme is used for the discretization of the dissipative term whereas a third-order explicit Adams–Bashforth scheme is used for the time discretization of the interface term that couples the Stokes and Darcy components. the scheme is efficient in the sense that one needs to solve, at each time step, decoupled Stokes and Darcy problems. Therefore, legacy Stokes and Darcy solvers can be applied in parallel. the scheme is also unconditionally stable and, with …

In this paper, we propose and numerically solve a new model considering confined flow in dual-porosity media coupled with free flow in embedded macrofractures and conduits. Such situation arises, for example, for fluid flows in hydraulic fractured tight/shale oil/gas reservoirs. The flow in dual-porosity media, which consists of both matrix and microfractures, is described by a dual-porosity model. And the flow in the macrofractures and conduits is governed by the Stokes equation. Then the two models are coupled through four physically valid interface conditions on the interface between dual-porosity media and macrofractures/conduits, which play a key role in a physically …

Oscillation Criteria For Third-Order Functional Differential Equations With Damping, Martin Bohner, Said R. Grace, Irena Jadlovska

This paper is a continuation of the recent study by Bohner et al [9] on oscillation properties of nonlinear third order functional differential equation under the assumption that the second order differential equation is nonoscillatory. We consider both the delayed and advanced case of the studied equation. The presented results correct and extend earlier ones. Several illustrative examples are included.

"Compiling and writing the history of the Missouri MAA Section has been time-consuming, but it has mainly been rewarding and a wonderful learning experience. Both the Monthly and the MAA began with strong Midwestern and Missouri influences, something which our section can look back on with well-deserved pride. Missouri MAA members have consistently advanced collegiate mathematics, mathematics education, mathematics research and scholarship, and public appreciation for and understanding of mathematics in both Missouri and the nation. Looking to the future, the MAA and the Missouri Section can continue to be a great source of opportunities for leadership and service for …
Asymptotic Behavior Of Certain Integrodifferential Equations, Said R. Grace, Elvan Akin
Asymptotic Behavior Of Certain Integrodifferential Equations, Said R. Grace, Elvan Akin
Mathematics and Statistics Faculty Research & Creative Works
This paper deals with asymptotic behavior of nonoscillatory solutions of certain forced integrodifferential equations of the form: (a(t)x'(t))' = e (t) + ∫ tc (t - s)α - 1k(t,s)ƒ(s,x(s))ds, c > 1, 0 < α < 1. From the obtained results, we derive a technique which can be applied to some related integrodifferential as well as integral equations.

We study the existence and nonexistence of nonoscillatory solutions of a two-dimensional system of first-order dynamic equations on time scales. Our approach is based on the Knaster and Schauder fixed point theorems and some certain integral conditions. Examples are given to illustrate some of our main results.

Sneak-Out Principle On Time Scales, Martin Bohner, Samir H. Saker
Sneak-Out Principle On Time Scales, Martin Bohner, Samir H. Saker
Mathematics and Statistics Faculty Research & Creative Works
In this paper, we show that the so-called "sneak-out principle" for discrete inequalities is valid also on a general time scale. In particular, we prove some new dynamic inequalities on time scales which as special cases contain discrete inequalities obtained by Bennett and Grosse-Erdmann. The main results also are used to formulate the corresponding continuous integral inequalities, and these are essentially new. The techniques employed in this paper are elementary and rely mainly on the time scales integration by parts rule, the time scales chain rule, the time scales Hölder inequality, and the time scales Minkowski inequality.
Oscillation Criteria For Fourth Order Nonlinear Positive Delay Differential Equations With A Middle Term, Said R. Grace, Elvan Akin
Oscillation Criteria For Fourth Order Nonlinear Positive Delay Differential Equations With A Middle Term, Said R. Grace, Elvan Akin
Mathematics and Statistics Faculty Research & Creative Works
In this article, we establish some new criteria for the oscillation of fourth order nonlinear delay differential equations of the form (Equation presented) provided that the second order equation (Equation presented) is nonoscillatiory or oscillatory. This equation with g(t) = t is considered in [8] and some oscillation criteria for this equation via certain energy functions are established. Here, we continue the study on the oscillatory behavior of this equation via some inequalities.
