Stability Analysis Of Neutral Functional Differential Equations Arising In Partial Element Equivalent Circuit Models, Howard Michael Allison
Stability Analysis Of Neutral Functional Differential Equations Arising In Partial Element Equivalent Circuit Models, Howard Michael Allison
Theses and Dissertations
Neutral Functional Differential Equations (NFDEs) arise in the study of the Partial Element Equivalent Circuit (PEEC) model with time delays. We present sufficient conditions for asymptotic stability and global stability in the delays of the PEEC NFDE’s, using Lyapunov-Razumikhin function methods.. We develop, for the first time, a standard mixing-type nonlinearity for the PEEC NFDEs. Introducing time invariant and time varying nonlinear perturbation to the PEEC NFDEs, we develop sufficient conditions for stability of the nonlinear perturbed PEEC NFDEs and convergence of the nonlinear system to the original stable linear autonomous system. We also develop sufficient conditions for stability and …
Computational Models For Biological Locomotion In Gels, Hashim Mohammed Alshehri
Computational Models For Biological Locomotion In Gels, Hashim Mohammed Alshehri
Theses and Dissertations
We investigated Low Reynold’s Number Locomotion in two-phase biological gels. The gel is composed of two materials: a viscous fluid solvent phase and a viscoelastic polymer network phase. A novel Two-phase Immersed Boundary Method (IBM) is developed to simulate the complicated interactions between an elastic boundary and a mixture of two fluids with very different physical properties. A further extension of the method is developed for the case where fluids satisfy partial-slip and free-slip conditions on the elastic boundary. Our major conclusions are summarized as following: (i) Our numerical scheme is proved to be robust and efficient. It can successfully …

Generalized Random Measures On Topological Spaces, Ali Hussein Mahmood Al-Obaidi
Generalized Random Measures On Topological Spaces, Ali Hussein Mahmood Al-Obaidi
Theses and Dissertations
Our work deals with classes of random measures on -compact Hausdorff spaces perturbed by stochastic processes. We render a rigorous construction of the stochastic integral of functions of two variables and show that such an integral is a random measure. We establish a new Campbell-type formula that, along with a rigorous construction of modulation, leads to the intensity of a modulated random measure. We further introduce and study a marked Poisson random measure on a - compact Hausdorff space. The underlying parameters of this measure are changing in accordance with the evolution of a stochastic process. This generalized random measure …
On The Qualitative Theory Of The Nonlinear Parabolic P-Laplacian Type Reaction-Diffusion Equations, Roqia Abdullah Jeli
On The Qualitative Theory Of The Nonlinear Parabolic P-Laplacian Type Reaction-Diffusion Equations, Roqia Abdullah Jeli
Theses and Dissertations
This dissertation presents full classification of the evolution of the interfaces and asymptotics of the local solution near the interfaces and at infinity for the nonlinear second order parabolic p-Laplacian type reaction-diffusion equation of non-Newtonian elastic filtration ut − ( |ux| p−2 ux ) x +buβ = 0, p > 1, β > 0. (1) Nonlinear partial differential equation (1) is a key model example expressing competition between nonlinear diffusion with gradient dependent diffusivity in either slow (p > 2) or fast (1 < p < 2) regime and nonlinear state dependent reaction (b > 0) or absorption (b < 0) forces. If interface is finite, it may expand, shrink, or remain stationary as a result of the competition of the diffusion and reaction terms near the interface, expressed in terms of the parameters p, β,sign b, and asymptotics of the initial function near its support. In the fast diffusion regime strong domination of the diffusion causes infinite speed of propagation and interfaces are absent. In all cases with finite interfaces we prove the explicit formula for the interface and the local solution with accuracy up to constant coefficients. We prove explicit asymptotics of the local solution at infinity in all cases with infinite speed of propagation. The methods of the proof are generaliii ization of the methods developed in U.G. Abdulla & J. King, SIAM J. Math. Anal., 32, 2(2000), 235-260; U.G. Abdulla, Nonlinear Analysis, 50, 4(2002), 541-560 and based on rescaling laws for the nonlinear PDE and blow-up techniques for the identification of the asymptotics of the solution near the interfaces, construction of barriers using special comparison theorems in irregular domains with characteristic boundary curves.

On The Classification Of The Second Minimal Orbits Of The Continuous Endomorphisms On The Real Line And Universality In Chaos, Naveed H. Iqbal
On The Classification Of The Second Minimal Orbits Of The Continuous Endomorphisms On The Real Line And Universality In Chaos, Naveed H. Iqbal
Theses and Dissertations
This dissertation presents full classification of second minimal odd periodic orbits of a continuous endomorphisms on the real line. A (2k + 1)-periodic orbit (k ≥ 3) is called second minimal for the map f , if 2k−1 is a minimal period of f in the Sharkovskii ordering. We prove that there are 4k−3 types of second minimal (2k+1)-orbits, each characterized with unique cyclic permutation and directed graph of transitions with accuracy up to inverses. The result is applied to the problem on the distribution of periodic windows within the chaotic regime of the bifurcation diagram of the one-parameter family …
On The Inverse Multiphase Stefan Problem, Bruno Giuseppe Poggi Cevallos
On The Inverse Multiphase Stefan Problem, Bruno Giuseppe Poggi Cevallos
Theses and Dissertations
We consider inverse multiphase Stefan problem, where information on the heat flux on the fixed boundary is missing and must be found along with the temperature and free boundaries. Optimal control framework is pursued, where boundary heat flux is the control, and optimality criteria consists of the minimization of the L₂-norm declination of the trace of the solution to the Stefan problem from the temperature measurement on the fixed boundary. State vector solves multiphase Stefan problem in a weak formulation, which is equivalent to Neumann problem for the quasilinear parabolic PDE with discontinuous coefficient. Full discretization through finite differences is …
Random Walks On Random Lattices And Their Applications, Ryan Tyler White
Random Walks On Random Lattices And Their Applications, Ryan Tyler White
Theses and Dissertations
This work studies a class of continuous-time, multidimensional random walk processes with mutually dependent random step sizes and their exits from hyperrectangles. Fluctuations of the process about the critical boundary are studied extensively by stochastic analysis and operational calculus. Further, information on the process can be ascertained only upon observations occurring according to a delayed renewal process, rather than in real time. Passage times are thus obscured and results are first derived pertaining to the pre-passage and post-passage observations. Two distinct strategies are developed to combat the crudeness of delayed observations in order to derive more refined information about the …
Phenotypic Variance Predicts Symbiont Population Densities In Corals: A Modeling Approach, Robert Van Woesik, Kazuyo Shiroma, Semen Koksal
Phenotypic Variance Predicts Symbiont Population Densities In Corals: A Modeling Approach, Robert Van Woesik, Kazuyo Shiroma, Semen Koksal
Ocean Engineering and Marine Sciences Faculty Publications
We test whether the phenotypic variance of symbionts (Symbiodinium) in corals is closely related with the capacity of corals to acclimatize to increasing seawater temperatures. Moreover, we assess whether more specialist symbionts will increase within coral hosts under ocean warming. The present study is only applicable to those corals that naturally have the capacity to support more than one type of Symbiodinium within the lifetime of a colony; for example, Montastraea annularis and Montastraea faveolata. Methodology/Principal Findings: The population dynamics of competing Symbiodinium symbiont populations were projected through time in coral hosts using a novel, discrete time optimal-resource model. Models …

On Intensities Of Modulated Cox Measures, Jewgeni H. Dshalalow
On Intensities Of Modulated Cox Measures, Jewgeni H. Dshalalow
Mathematics and System Engineering Faculty Publications
In this paper we introduce and study functionals of the intensities of random measures modulated by a stochastic process ξ, which occur in applications to stochastic models and telecommunications. Modulation of a random measure by ξ is specified for marked Cox measures. Particular cases of modulation by ξ as semi-Markov and semiregenerative processes enabled us to obtain explicit formulas for the named intensities. Examples in queueing (systems with state dependent parameters, Little's and Campbell's formulas) demonstrate the use of the results.
On The Level Crossing Of Multi-Dimensional Delayed Renewal Processes, Jewgeni H. Dshalalow
On The Level Crossing Of Multi-Dimensional Delayed Renewal Processes, Jewgeni H. Dshalalow
Mathematics and System Engineering Faculty Publications
The paper studies the behavior of an (l+3)th-dimensional, delayed renewal process with dependent components, the first three (called active) of which are to cross one of their respective thresholds. More specifically, the crossing takes place when at least one of the active components reaches or exceeds its assigned level. The values of the other two active components, as well as the rest of the components (passive), are to be registered. The analysis yields the joint functional of the crossing level and other characteristics (some of which can be interpreted as the first passage time) in a closed form, refining earlier …

Bulk Input Queues With Quorum And Multiple Vacations, Jay Yellen, Jewgeni H. Dshalalow
Mathematics and System Engineering Faculty Publications
The authors study a single-server queueing system with bulk arrivals and batch service in accordance to the general quorum discipline: a batch taken for service is not less than r and not greater than R(≥r). The server takes vacations each time the queue level falls below r(≥1) in accordance with the multiple vacation discipline. The input to the system is assumed to be a compound Poisson process. The analysis of the system is based on the theory of first excess processes developed by the first author.

Stability Of Conditionally Invariant Sets And Controlled Uncertain Dynamic Systems On Time Scales, V. Lakshmikantham
Stability Of Conditionally Invariant Sets And Controlled Uncertain Dynamic Systems On Time Scales, V. Lakshmikantham
Mathematics and System Engineering Faculty Publications
A basic feedback control problem is that of obtaining some desired stability property from a system which contains uncertainties due to unknown inputs into the system. Despite such imperfect knowledge in the selected mathematical model, we often seek to devise controllers that will steer the system in a certain required fashion. Various classes of controllers whose design is based on the method of Lyapunov are known for both discrete [4], [10], [15], and continuous [3–9], [11] models described by difference and differential equations, respectively. Recently, a theory for what is known as dynamic systems on time scales has been built …

Mathematics and System Engineering Faculty Publications
This article deals with a general single-server bulk queueing system with a server waiting until the queue will reach level r before it starts processing customers. If at least r customers are available the server takes a batch of the fixed size r of units for service. The input stream is assumed to be a compound Poisson process modulated by a semi-Markov process and with a multilevel control of service time. The authors evaluate the steady state probabilities of the queueing processes with discrete and continuous time parameter preliminarily establishing necessary and sufficient conditions for the ergodicity of the processes. …

A Bulk Queueing System Under N-Policy With Bilevel Service Delay Discipline And Start-Up Time, David C.R. Muh
Mathematics and System Engineering Faculty Publications
The author studies the queueing process in a single-server, bulk arrival and batch service queueing system with a compound Poisson input, bilevel service delay discipline, start-up time, and a fixed accumulation level with control operating policy.

Two cases, with N ≦ R and N ≥ R, are studied. The author finds explicitly the probability generating function of the stationary distribution of …

The method of generalized quasilinearization [4] is applied to study semilinear parabolic equation ut – Lu = f{t,x,u) with nonlocal boundary conditions u(t,x)=∫Ωϕ(x,y)u(t,y)dy in this paper. The convexity of f in u is relaxed by requiring f(t,x,u) Muz to be convex for some M > 0. The quadratic convergence of monotone sequence is obtained.
