Multiscale Modelling Of Brain Networks And The Analysis Of Dynamic Processes In Neurodegenerative Disorders, Hina Shaheen
Theses and Dissertations (Comprehensive)
The complex nature of the human brain, with its intricate organic structure and multiscale spatio-temporal characteristics ranging from synapses to the entire brain, presents a major obstacle in brain modelling. Capturing this complexity poses a significant challenge for researchers. The complex interplay of coupled multiphysics and biochemical activities within this intricate system shapes the brain's capacity, functioning within a structure-function relationship that necessitates a specific mathematical framework. Advanced mathematical modelling approaches that incorporate the coupling of brain networks and the analysis of dynamic processes are essential for advancing therapeutic strategies aimed at treating neurodegenerative diseases (NDDs), which afflict millions of …
An Exposition Of The Curvature Of Warped Product Manifolds,

California State University - San Bernardino
An Exposition Of The Curvature Of Warped Product Manifolds, Angelina Bisson
Electronic Theses, Projects, and Dissertations
The field of differential geometry is brimming with compelling objects, among which are warped products. These objects hold a prominent place in differential geometry and have been widely studied, as is evident in the literature. Warped products are topologically the same as the Cartesian product of two manifolds, but with distances in one of the factors in skewed. Our goal is to introduce warped product manifolds and to compute their curvature at any point. We follow recent literature and present a previously known result that classifies all flat warped products to find that there are flat examples of warped products …
Game-Theoretic Approaches To Optimal Resource Allocation And Defense Strategies In Herbaceous Plants,

University of Nebraska-Lincoln
Game-Theoretic Approaches To Optimal Resource Allocation And Defense Strategies In Herbaceous Plants, Molly R. Creagar
Department of Mathematics: Dissertations, Theses, and Student Research
Empirical evidence suggests that the attractiveness of a plant to herbivores can be affected by the investment in defense by neighboring plants, as well as investment in defense by the focal plant. Thus, allocation to defense may not only be influenced by the frequency and intensity of herbivory but also by defense strategies employed by other plants in the environment. We incorporate a neighborhood defense effect by applying spatial evolutionary game theory to optimal resource allocation in plants where cooperators are plants investing in defense and defectors are plants that do not. We use a stochastic dynamic programming model, along …

Dynamic Rotation Of Maxwellian Fluid With Fluctuating Thermal Conductivity, Yasir Iqbal, Iqra Batool, Zia Ur Rehman
International Journal of Emerging Multidisciplinaries: Mathematics
This investigation examined the behavior of an overhead-connected Maxwell (UCM) fluid within a rotating framework, with consideration for variations in thermal conductivity based on temperature. The heat deportation process was simulated by incorporating a non-Fourier heat flux term, accounting for thermal relaxation effects. The governing set of partial differential equations underwent decomposition through boundary layer approximations, followed by employing similarity transformations to convert them into self-similar forms. To investigate the effect of the rotation criterion ($\lambda$), Prandtl number (Pr), Deborah number ($\beta$), parameter ($\epsilon$), and dimensionless thermal relaxation time ($\gamma$), an advanced three-stage Lobatto IIIa numerical method was applied. The …
Thermodynamic Laws Of Billiards-Like Microscopic Heat Conduction Models,

University of Massachusetts Amherst
Thermodynamic Laws Of Billiards-Like Microscopic Heat Conduction Models, Ling-Chen Bu
Doctoral Dissertations
In this thesis, we study the mathematical model of one-dimensional microscopic heat conduction of gas particles, applying both both analytical and numerical approaches. The macroscopic law of heat conduction is the renowned Fourier’s law J = −k∇T, where J is the local heat flux density, T(x, t) is the temperature gradient, and k is the thermal conductivity coefficient that characterizes the material’s ability to conduct heat. Though Fouriers’s law has been discovered since 1822, the thorough understanding of its microscopic mechanisms remains challenging [3] (2000). We assume that the microscopic model of heat conduction is a hard ball system. The …
